I joined the Sit Means Sit team in the fall of 2010. As the proud owner of two St. Bernard/Rottweiler mixes, I was eager to get my dogs into training shortly after I started my career with the company. My dogs would jump on everyone and everything they could! They counter surfed, dug through the trash, and pulled so hard on the leash that I had fallen more than once! After we started training, I couldn’t believe the difference! In just a few short lessons, my out-of-control maniacs were well behaved, listened to us under any circumstance, and stopped pulling on the leash! Knowing what Sit Means Sit has done for my dogs alone, had made me a believer in the program! I’ve been lucky enough to work with the best trainers in the business and clients who are second to none. Being able to talk to satisfied clients whose dogs started out with behavioral challenges and listening to the proud dog moms and dads as they share their success stories has shown me that I am right where I belong!

In my career with Sit Means Sit, I have attended six annual Sit Means Sit Main Event corporate conferences to continue my education in customer service and communication, management, website optimization, and software integration. I was an invited speaker at the 2017, 2018, and 2019 Main Event conferences and recipient of the Administrative Excellence Award in 2017.

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Kent State University and studied for three years at the University of Akron working towards a Master’s Degree. I also spent seven years on the Board of Directors for the National Super Kids Classic, a national soap box derby for children with special needs. I also spent time as a volunteer at the Humane Society of Greater Akron, where I was blessed to work with amazing animals, that against most odds, were a pleasure to be around and eventually adopted into forever homes!
