💙 Meet the Team: Doreen Coates 💙
Treasurer and Clinic Volunteer
We’re excited to introduce Doreen Coates, one of the incredible people who helps keep H.E.A.R.T., Inc. moving forward.
Doreen was a principal with Accounting with Debits and Credits / Coates & Hutchinson, PC for 36 years, managing day‑to‑day operations and supporting clients with their tax and accounting needs. In her retirement she spends a great amount of time as part of H.E.A.R.T., Inc team. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Accounting and Business from the University of Maryland in 1989 and became a CPA in 1991.
She’s also been deeply involved in her community, serving in multiple roles within the West Anne Arundel Chamber of Commerce.
When she’s not working, Doreen loves spending time with her husband, kids, and grandkids — and she never turns down a chance to travel. ✈️💛
Her other great passion????
Volunteering to help make the lives of Maryland's animals better. She has volunteered at her local shelter and spends a great amount of time keeping our finances in order, as well as volunteering with the day-to-day task at the clinic. Her heart for animals and her dedication to service shine through in everything she does.
We’re grateful to have Doreen as part of the H.E.A.R.T., Inc. family! 🐾💙
