I help people solve dog behavior issues and improve wellbeing using practical, natural and empathetic methods.

I am a canids researcher, dog behavior and well-being consultant, educator, and animal advocate. My work focuses on understanding dogs through observation, environment, and relationship—rather than relying only on standard training models.

My experience spans across different countries and contexts, where I have studied and observed wolves, free-roaming dogs, dingoes, and other canids. These experiences have deeply shaped my understanding of domestic dogs and their behavior.

I integrate knowledge from animal behavior, human development, somatic practices, and neuroscience to offer a more complete and practical approach. My background also includes social work, theatre, and movement-based disciplines, which influence how I teach and how I approach human–animal interaction.

I am involved in international projects related to animal behavior, education, and compassionate conservation, and I collaborate with universities and organizations worldwide.

In my courses, you will find practical tools you can apply immediately, together with a deeper perspective that helps you understand your dog beyond surface-level techniques.

If you are looking not only to solve problems, but also to develop a more aware and respectful relationship with your dog, you are in the right place.
