About

As a Special Operations military veteran, I bring discipline, precision, and real-world structure into dog training. I spent over a decade working alongside elite Multi-Purpose Canine handlers in SOCOM and have 15 years of experience instructing in high-risk training environments, I specialize in simplifying complex behaviors and delivering results on accelerated timelines. Since launching TOP Dog Training in January 2025, we have rapidly established ourselves as a leader in the industry. In our first year, we earned 1st Place in the Topsail Top Choice Awards, were named Regional Best in North Carolina, and ranked among the Top 3 Dog Training Companies in Onslow County. On May 1st 2026, we are launching our app - The Pawprint Academy. The Pawprint Academy is not a gamified dog training app built on reminders, clicker sounds, and surface-level tips. It is a professionally engineered training platform built on the science of how dogs actually learn and how behavior is shaped over time. It breaks training down into the exact layers that drive behavior, engagement, structure, communication, and accountability, so owners can stop guessing and start making measurable progress immediately. This is not a quick-fix solution. It's a training engine built to guide owners through real-world problems, troubleshoot stalled progress, and develop reliable behavior over the entire life of the dog. It teaches owners how to change reinforcement patterns, eliminate problem behaviors at the root, and build a dog that consistently performs without constant management. This is the same level of structured, results-driven training used in professional environments, now delivered in a system that adapts, coaches, and evolves with the handler to get the job done. Our program is built on real-world results. We have collaborated directly with local veterinarians to resolve complex behavioral cases and developed community outreach initiatives that are actively improving dog ownership standards. My mission is simple: help owners build reliable, obedient dogs and create a better life at home through our proven system: Trust, Obey, Perform.
