Author, Educator, Public Speaker, and Founder of "How Your Dog Can Help Your Child Read, Lead, & Succeed"
My passion is supporting children to become more confident and proficient readers while helping them to develop the tools for success in life through increased self-esteem, compassion and empathy for all life on our planet. I completed my PhD in Education at the University of Alberta, Canada, during which I researched how children experience animal-assisted literacy learning. "How Your Dog Can Help Your Child Read, Lead, & Succeed" is the culmination of my life's work - I can't wait to share it!
