Nature Gnaws, the Florida based dog chew brand with a line of all-natural chews, announced the hiring of Andrea Rodriguez as their director of Human Resources (HR). Formerly of Accurate Personnel Services, Ascendo Resources and Boeing, Rodriguez brings her wealth of HR knowledge in recruiting, policies, hiring laws and corporate standards to create a thriving, attractive and progressive workspace at Nature Gnaws.
