Haley Wartell (she/her) is originally from Colorado and moved to Lexington in 2022 after graduating with a Bachelors of Science in Biology Education.

She's also a founding board member of the Lexington Pet Pantry and volunteers taking portraits of adoptable dogs for Saved By Fate, a local rescue. Through her background in education, she's passionate about accessibility of information and learning. When she’s not watching the latest shows with friends, she loves to cook and take walks with her dog Eleanor!
