Scott - Vice President

Scott began working with Good Shepherd on April Fool's Day. In 2002 Scott took the chance to build a new career in a fairly new industry. Textiles were coming to an end and it was time for a change. From Chattanooga, Tennessee Scott moved to Charlotte after graduating from the University of Tennessee. During his time at Good Shepherd Scott has done a remarkable job of introducing our services to veterinarians throughout the Southeast. Scott is our point man; you will find him at most "shows" that are attended by Good Shepherd. He usually has his companion Frank along for the ride.

When Scott is not working, you will find him on a golf course taking money from his friends. If you ask Scott what he likes most about Good Shepherd he will tell you about the relationships he has with veterinarians, their staff, and the client's that appreciate the services he provides.

Mike - Sales Representative and Crematory Operator

Mike was born and raised in Jamestown, North Carolina where he attended North Carolina State University. He spent 15+ years in the Food and Beverage Management industry before joining the Good Shepherd Team in 2009. In that time, he has been a part of three separate markets helping the company grow.

Mike is a devoted husband and father. He and his beautiful wife, Jaclyn, are raising three amazing kids. Dominick 15, Ryker 7, and their daughter Dylan 5. The family also includes a few non-human members. One dog (Cooper), a cat (Marla), 2 rats ( Raven and Daisy), and one pretty cool fish (Rocket).

When Mike isn't working, serving at church, or dealing with the household of craziness, he enjoys playing golf, cooking, following his favorite sports teams, binge watching cheezy shows with his wife, and lots of fun time with the family. If you are a Tarheels, Irish, or Red Sox fan, you will get along famously with Mike.

Mike has an amazing sense of humor and can easily put a smile on anyone's face. With the exception of maybe his wife at times lol.
