Support your dog trainer by sharing your story

My love of dogs began with my English Springer Spaniel, Nickie, the perfect nanny dog and a great hunter too. Abby the shepherd came next, a very sweet and anxious little girl. After pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Political Science and a Masters in International Development Studies, I moved back to my true passion and began working with dogs in a professional capacity in 2011. First working as a dog daycare attendant, I soon became involved with some local rescues and would foster different 'problem dogs' and try to get them ready for adoption. After several years of experimenting with different training methods, I decided to attend Starmark Academy's School for Dog Trainers, one of the highest rated dog-training schools in the country. I am certified by Starmark as a Canine Training and Behavior Specialist, and I am a member of the International Association of Canine Professionals. Currently I specialize in behavior modification alongside basic obedience. I also work with Doggone Express' Big House to Your House program, which teaches inmates to train shelter dogs. I love helping dogs and their humans live happy lives together, and I look forward to working with your pack!
