Determination. Knowledge. Leadership. Reputation. Accomplishment.

As a former Infantry Marine, the Marine Corps gave me purpose and drive in a career. Leaving that behind left a hole that needed to be filled and training dogs seemed to really become a passion of mine. Doing basic pet obedience was a great way to start, but there was still something missing.

Combining my history of the military and dog training led me to the police/military K9 community. Which drove me to attend a K9 school, training seminars, and meeting some really great K9 trainers and handlers.
