I have halways loved dogs and began seriously working with them in 1990. After graduating from the first Canine Studies Program and managing another training facility. 

My business partner and fellow trainer, Andrea Stone and I decided to strike out on our own and open UCLADogs in 2008.  I am a full member of the APDT . I continues to keep abreast of industry literature and attends seminars and lectures as my busy schedule allows We look forward to continuing to help people effectively communicate with their dogs at Seattle’s own University Canine Learning Academy.
