I have always had a love and passion for working with and helping animals.  I started my career with animals by working at a veterinary hospital where I acquired a great deal of knowledge about the general care and husbandry of small animals.  This also included learning basic restraint and safe handling techniques, which eventually sparked my interest in learning about canine behavior.  More specifically, I focused on learning how to help bridge the communication gap between humans and their canine companions.

I am a certified trainer and have over twelve years of experience working with dogs of varying breeds and ages.  My main focus over the years has been on studying canine behavior and incorporating science-based training methods into my training programs. I have a strong desire to help pet parents build a strong and long-lasting relationship with their dogs that is built on love, trust and respect.
