I am a dog trainer in the DFW Texas area. I have always had a deep love for animals, and even trained my pet rats to perform tricks when I was a kid! My animal care experience began with horses and working in a pet hotel.
In college I became heavily interested in dog training, and started working with a friend and learning as much as I could from books and videos. After my service dog, Pippin, was attacked by an off leash dog and became reactive, I became interested in learning more about nervous and reactive dogs, but I specialize in psychiatric service dogs.
I worked in a dog training company for two years, and now I have my own! My goal is to foster cooperative bonds between dogs and their owners through a relationship-based training model using science-backed, proven, and safe methods. I frequently collaborate with other trainers and complete continuing education to be the best trainer I can be!

Pippin is my lab mix. He has been with me since 2018 and is the foundation for my dog training journey! Pippin is a nervous but extremely intelligent guy who likes things his way! He's not keen on strangers, but if introduced properly, is your friend for life! His favorite activities include laying in shallow water, hiking, and eating snacks!
Jarvis is my German Shepherd and current service dog. He is an outgoing, talkative, do-anything guy with a specialty in being goofy! Jarvis has been a part of the family since 2021. His favorite activities are playing ball, entertaining company, and being my shadow!
