Alisha Horton
Director of Recruitment & Marketing Manager
Born in California and raised in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, Alisha has always had a soft spot for animals. Her childhood companions were a guinea pig named Gina and a cockapoo named Shorty. Though her professional journey didn’t initially revolve around the animal world, her love for animals remained a constant.
Alisha’s passion for marketing took root in high school when her mother launched a makeup line called 23Kissez. Tasked with promoting the business on social media, working vendor shows, engaging with press, and identifying growth opportunities, she was instrumental in the company’s early stages. This experience ignited her interest in marketing and led her to an internship at Allied Integrated Marketing Detroit. As a publicity and promotions intern, she honed her skills tracking media coverage, organizing promotional events, pitching promotional ideas, assisting with movie screenings, and managing social media posts.
While pursuing her business studies at Wayne State University, Alisha worked as a LASIK Coordinator and Marketing Assistant for an ophthalmology practice in Fraser, Michigan. Her responsibilities spanned from creating LASIK promotions and managing social media platforms to influencer marketing and coordinating LASIK surgeries. This role intensified her love for social media and led to her starting a business as a freelance social media manager for local businesses.
In 2023, Alisha relocated to Las Vegas and joined the teams at Craig Road Animal Hospital, Lone Mountain Animal Hospital, and Aliante Animal Hospital as the Digital Marketing Manager. Her expertise in marketing and her love for animals make a winning combination in her role.
When she’s not immersed in the world of digital marketing, Alisha enjoys reading, binge-watching Netflix shows, listening to music, creating content, dining at the local food scene in Las Vegas, and spending time with her 3-year-old bulldog, Kushner.
