He specializes in protection sports and obedience, with a skill set that bridges both foundational training and advanced performance work.

He has presented more than 150 seminars and workshops around the world, working with sport clubs of every discipline, rescue organizations, search and rescue teams, law enforcement units, and members of the general public.
