So glad you're here!
Meet Your Trainer
From the moment I took my first steps it had been obvious that I was an animal person. I gravitated towards all animals. From spiders to horses to sharks, I love them all! It was only natural for me to start working with animals professionally. I was extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to start my career caring for and working with animals in the movie industry. The hands-on experience and knowledge I gained from having access to such an incredible array of animals is invaluable.
My training experience is one that I will forever be grateful for, and I cherish my time with such wonderful creatures and trainers. As my career progressed I found myself interested in behavioral cases and explored working with more complex dogs. The more I was able to help people understand and connect with their “complicated” dog, the more aware I became that I found my niche and I have been helping pet owners since. It is a dream come true to get to be exactly who you wanted to be when you grew up. I am so grateful to be able to do what I’m so passionate about every day and call it my job.

Continued Education & Certifications
I have continued my education in animal behavior by attending Animal Behavioral College where I was certified as an Obedience Instructor and graduated with honors as well as I have been a defensive handler certified by the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants since 2020. I am forever a student and although some of my best teachers have been dogs, I also regularly attend seminars to keep myself up to date on the latest training methodologies and theories.
