Our Board of Directors

Hello

President and Founder

My name is Brigitte and I am the founder of DART which stands for Duette Animal Rescue Team, Inc. I founded DART in 2020 in Manatee County to help address the challenges with the overpopulation of feral and stray community cats as well as the plight for exotic ex-pets such as lemurs.

​

I immigrated from the Netherlands to the USA and have since obtained my American citizenship. I have had and still have a successful career in Corporate America for over 30 years now and volunteer all of my spare time completely to the mission of DART. 

​

I have a Bachelor Degree in Science in Information Systems from the University of Florida and have almost completed a Bachelor Degree in Science in Animal Sciences at Saint Petersburg College in Clearwater.

​

My volunteer experience with animals spans over 30 years, having worked at County Animal Shelters and various exotic animal sanctuaries. 

​

I am very proud to say that we are a minority lead non-profit 501c3 organization lead by all women. We pride ourselves in the fact that we are a strong proponent of diversity and inclusion practices for the clients we serve.
