After graduating from NC State’s College of Veterinary medicine in 2013, Dr. Quincy Hawley worked for Banfield Pet Hospital in Fayetteville, N.C. where he enjoyed working as an associate veterinarian for 5 years. At the beginning of 2018, Dr. Hawley resigned from his career as a practicing veterinarian and is now pursuing his life mission, which is to provide wellness solutions for the veterinary community. As the co-founder of Get MotiVETed, Dr. Hawley has a vision of eradicating compassion fatigue and burnout from the veterinary community. Get MotiVETed will accomplish this by creating global awareness of and acceptance of both personal development and mindfulness as practices that must be incorporated into the lives of veterinary professionals.
Throughout his veterinary journey, Dr. Hawley gained a wide variety of experiences including food animal medicine, regulatory medicine through USDA-APHIS-VS and USDA-FSIS, veterinary research, pharmaceutical sales with Elanco Animal Health, and international exotic animal and volunteer veterinary experiences. This wide variety of exposure and experience have positioned him well for his current veterinary endeavors.
Dr. Hawley is also passionate about improving diversity and inclusion in the profession. Since the Spring of 2016, he also volunteers his time in the veterinary community by serving as the President of the North Carolina Association of Minority Veterinarians.
Dr. Hawley is also volunteering his time by serving his first of four terms as a member of the N.C. State College of Veterinary Medicine admissions committee. This is truly an honor for Dr. Hawley, and he is thoroughly enjoying the opportunity to be a part of such an amazing process of helping future veterinarians realize their dreams.
Combining his entrepreneurial desire with his desire to be a motivational speaker and life coach, Dr. Hawley created Dream Life Motivation, a professional speaking and personal and professional life coaching business, which encourages the pursuit of health, wealth, full potential, and authentic happiness. The slogan for Dream Life Motivation is “Empowering Dreams. Demanding Action. Creating Success”. Through this platform, Dr. Hawley provides the online community with weekly blog articles on the principles of success, hosts monthly giveaways of useful prizes, and has built a nationwide audience for two self-help books he has authored that will be released in 2018.
Outside of his business affairs, Dr. Hawley enjoys spending time with his beautiful wife (also a veterinarian) and his amazing two-year old daughter. He also enjoys playing both competitive and casual tennis and visiting exotic locations with beautiful beaches. Last, but certainly not least, Dr. Hawley enjoys learning the technical and fundamental analysis of the financial markets.
