I got my first Belgian Sheepdog in 1995 and have since been hooked on showing and training Belgians. I have trained, competed and titled in conformation, obedience, rally and agility. I have also shown horses in lower-level eventing trials. I enjoy learning, and I think every animal and handler is different, requiring different approaches and continuous problem-solving.

I joined DTCCU in 2022 after moving to the area, and I have previously trained in Columbia, MO and Arlington, VA. Outside of dogs, I’m a professor, Extension aficionado, wife and mom, and extrovert.
