Expert Speaker & Host

Modern Canine Enrichment + Pet Industry Digital Marketing

I speak and host conversations focused on modern canine enrichment and how pet businesses communicate, grow, and build trust. My work blends science-backed dog enrichment with real-world media and marketing experience, making every talk practical, engaging, and easy to apply.

I’m a Certified Canine Enrichment Technician and have spent over a decade building pet-focused media platforms, podcasts, and educational programs used by pet parents, professionals, and brands around the world.

Whether I’m demonstrating enrichment activities on camera or teaching pet professionals how to show up with confidence online, my goal is the same: Help dogs live better lives and help the people who care for them communicate more clearly.

Signature Speaking Topics

Modern Canine Enrichment

I share science-backed enrichment strategies that support dogs’ mental health, confidence, and overall wellbeing. These talks focus on practical, realistic activities that fit into everyday life. Audiences leave with a clearer understanding of what enrichment actually is, how to apply it thoughtfully, and how small changes can make a big difference for dogs of all ages and abilities.

This topic is ideal for pet parents, trainers, behavior professionals, brands, and media audiences.

Pet Industry Digital Marketing Strategies

I also speak on digital marketing for pet professionals and brands who want to grow sustainably without chasing trends or burning out. These talks draw from more than 15 years of experience building multi-platform pet media brands and mentoring petpreneurs. Topics often include content strategy, email marketing, on-camera confidence, and turning expertise into income.

This is the work that has helped thousands of pet businesses grow audiences, increase revenue, and show up online with clarity
