As the owner of Paws & Effect MN, I am a credentialed dog trainer and behaviorist. Specializing in in-home training and behavior modification for dogs experiencing fear, anxiety, and aggression. Based in St. Paul, Minnesota, I am dedicated to helping dogs and their owners build trust, confidence, and a strong bond through effective, science-backed methods.

As a former Military Police Officer, Infantryman and U.S. Army Veteran, I bring discipline, patience, and a deep understanding of behavior to my work. I received my training from Catch Canine Academy and hold certification from Pawsitivity Service Dogs for Veterans.

I am committed to using a positive-only training approach, ensuring that every dog learns in a compassionate, stress-free environment. Whether addressing behavioral challenges or reinforcing good manners, my goal is to create lasting results that improve the lives of both dogs and their families.
