Evette CEO aims to put impersonation incident behind her

The founder of a veterinary relief company who confessed last fall to impersonating a veterinarian so she could join a closed social media group says that the company "has done our best to address the issue, take action and move forward."

In an interview in March, Elise Burns, CEO of Evette Staffing, told the VIN News Service that she has experienced no legal consequences from the admitted deception nor was she contacted by Meta, the owner of Facebook, the platform where her company was discovered to be using a false identity to infiltrate several private groups intended for veterinarians only.
