Head Trainer
 

My journey into dog training started over a decade ago with my first German Shepherd, Alpha. What began as a passion quickly turned into a lifelong commitment to understanding dogs, building communication, and developing reliable working relationships between dog and handler. From that point forward, I dove headfirst into the training world and have never looked back.

​

Over the years, I've worked with everything from family pets to high-drive working dogs, helping owners build confidence, structure, obedience and reliability through clear communication and balanced training methods, My experience includes puppy foundation, basic and advanced obedience, behavior modification, off leash training, protection work, and high-level obedience.

​

I currently compete in PSA with my German Shepherd Jager while developing my young prospect, Bane. Training to compete continues to push me to grow, learn and refine my approach daily.

​

At Alpha Canine Academy, I believe no two dogs are the same. Every dog learns differently and requires an individualized approach tailored to their temperment, drive, and goals. My focus is building clear communication, trust, confidence, and reliability through structured, balanced training designed for both dog and the owner.
