How did you hone your craft?
I honed my craft through a combination of hands-on experience, continuous learning, and mentorship. I spent countless hours not just practicing, but analyzing what worked, what didn’t, and why. I’ve taken the time to study others at the top of their field, adapt techniques, and stay current with industry trends. But most importantly, I stayed committed to showing up every day with discipline, curiosity, and the mindset that there’s always room to improve.
What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?
Consistency is everything. One of the biggest things I’ve learned as a professional is that dogs thrive on routine, clear communication, and follow-through. If you ask for a behavior, be ready to reinforce it every time—whether you’re training a basic command or managing behavior in real life. Mixed signals create confusion, but consistency builds confidence, trust, and results. Don’t worry about being perfect—just be consistent.
What is one thing you want pet parents to know about you? It can be whatev-fur you'd like!
I treat every dog like they’re part of my own pack. Whether we’re working on obedience or just building trust, I’m fully invested in their growth—and yours as their handler. Training with me isn’t just about commands; it’s about creating a real connection that makes life better for both ends of the leash. Big dogs, small dogs—I meet every pup where they are and help them become their best selves.
