She is dedicated to helping people strengthen and maintain the bond they share with their dogs. It is a particular pleasure to help shape well-behaved, cherished family companions as well as competition-ready teams.

She has enjoyed national and regional recognition and multiple high-in-trials in various venues with her dogs in the areas in which she trains and competes and is grateful to her dogs as teachers, partners, and friends. She credits her dogs and their joy in learning through reward-based training for her successes.
