I have been an animal person since I was born. At social gatherings, I find the animals and hang out with them. I am from the SF Bay Area and started getting paid to watch my parents’ friends’ dogs when I was 9 years old. In college I worked as a dog nanny in Atherton, CA and that is how I paid for my education. I moved here with my Dogo Argentino, Blizzard, in August 2012 to attend grad school at USC. Blizzard is now almost 11 years old and mostly deaf. [Blizzard passed from old age in May so I currently have a pet-less home] We live in Manhattan Beach. I also work in Organizational & Leadership Development in Manhattan Beach. Both my boyfriend and I work from home. I love animal psychology and am passionate about dogs. I created White Dog Rescue where I help disabled people with their dogs, I fund rescue organizations and work with rescued dogs in their training and rehabilitation. If I owned a dog daycare it would be called “Oh My Dog!” And my tagline would be “where dogs are gods” because, to me, they are very special beings.
