Hello, my name is Mike Bassett. I am the Southeast Sales Manager for Britz and Company.
I am a former Animal Facility Manager.

I served 6 years in the Mississippi Army National Guard as a 13 FOXTROT, forward observer.

My name is Dawn Hidenfelter, and I am excited to join the BritzCo family. I look forward to supporting customers throughout New England as the North East Sales Manager.
I have more than 25 years of experience with a wide range of lab animal species. I started out as an animal care technician and cagewash support and have grown into various positions over the years such as research technician, vivarium supervisor, operations manager and IACUC manager.
Over the years I have volunteered for my local and national AALAS branches, with the goal of improving animal care, and supporting the professional growth opportunities for our animal care and research technicians.
