What Toby enjoys most about his job at CCFL:

CCFL has so many diverse projects, and I love the work that we all do. It is always rewarding to hear the good work others are doing at CCFL that are impacting the lives of workers, families, and children in tangible ways. "Helping the helpers" is such an important job, and so many people are doing it so well here at CCFL!

Learn more about Toby:

I'm a huge animal lover...sometimes even more so than people. My partner and I have three dogs: Orabelle, a 10-year-old golden retriever who is the absolute sweetest, but scared of everything; Figgy Stardust, a 7-year-old beagle/foxhound who is perhaps the smartest animal I've encountered (making her a real pain in the butt but full of love and a great cuddler); and Winona, the cutest, tiniest, spangold retriever (springer spaniel/retriever) who melts my heart but is a total brat to her sisters. We also have a cat, Gus, who runs the entire house. Interesting tidbit: we also used to have a black widow as a "pet." Her name was Angie, and we would feed her crickets. We had her for 2.5 years before she died.
