Until we get a chance to meet and get to know each other, here are some details about my background……
My journey began on a picturesque mini-farm, where my family’s affection for animals thrived. Growing up surrounded by dogs, chickens, ducks, cats, fish, hamsters, a horse, a rabbit, and more, I learned to cherish animals as lifelong companions. With relatives who bred Irish Setters and maintained their own mini-farms, a deep appreciation for animals and the great outdoors became an essential part of who I am.
My fascination with behavior inspired me to study human psychology in college, where I became captivated by the complexities of human interaction. Although I initially ventured into the corporate world, I soon realized my true calling was working with animals. This realization sparked an exciting career shift into pet care.
Over time, I noticed many pets and livestock displayed fear-based behaviors. When caregivers reached out to me for help with aggressive dogs, I saw the urgent need for effective, compassionate solutions. This drove me to pursue specialized training—a fulfilling path of ongoing education. I believe continuous learning not only ensures safety but also elevates the quality of my services. As a trauma-informed professional dog trainer, I’m passionate about helping people like you through gentle, no-force methods that transform pets into confident, well-mannered companions.
Life is too precious not to share with a calm, confident companion by your side. Let’s create wonderful memories with your dog—at home, on adventures, and everywhere in between!
