about me
For the past decade, I’ve spent every chance I could get engrossing myself in the dog training world. From trick training my family dogs as a preteen to volunteering at every local agility trial I could get a ride to, dog training has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I’ve always loved the bond training creates between dogs and people. I’ve pushed myself to grow as a trainer and learn new skills in order to help each individual dog succeed and I continue to learn as much as possible.
I have a deep passion for developing drive and engagement in dogs. I want all of my training to be FUN and for the dogs to want to be there as much as we want to be there. No good dog training is possible if your dog doesn’t have a strong foundation to want to work for you.
I’m a UKI agility judge, Certified Canine Strength and Conditioning Coach (CSCC) and AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator

Dash
Dash is a 4 year old Border Collie with the most entertaining personality. She was a difficult young dog with her fair share of issues, but she helped me continue to develop my skills on how to meet a dog's emotional needs while shaping them into a more confident, happy member of society. Dash has come a long way and is now a skilled agility dog with a bright future. She's currently competing in the masters level in UKI, USDAA and AKC and has been on multiple national podiums

Vivid
Vivid is a 3 year old Belgian Malinois who has never had a bad day in her life. Vivid has more enthusiasm and zest for life than everyone else on the planet combined. While she's still a young dog, she's showing a ton of potential in everything we do. Vivid is starting to put the pieces together in agility and we're slowly but surely starting to pull out some beautiful runs on complex courses. She's been teaching me a ton about how to handle an incredibly fast, powerful dog. Vivid is also training in mondioring, a protection sport comprised of 3 phases: obedience, jumping, and protection. Training mondioring is one of the most difficult things I've ever done, but I love the challenge and Vivid is the best partner to learn with.
