I’m a certified Dog training professional and have been training dogs for over 6 years now. My services include puppy training, basic and advanced obedience as well as behavior modification. I do private in-home lessons as well as group classes. So, whether you’ve just got a new puppy, looking to address specific behavior issues, or just create a more peaceful home, I’d love to help you get there. My goal is to set people up for success with their dogs so that they can have a happy and fulfilling relationship!

My training journey began in early 2019 in Bangalore, India, where I had the privilege of learning under two of the most respected names in the field: the late John Rogerson and Shirin Dhabar. Their mentorship continues to shape my work and values to this day. Over the years, I’ve worked with hundreds of dogs; from energetic puppies to dogs with serious behavioral challenges. Now based in the Bay Area, I offer personalized training that focuses on clear communication, mutual respect, and long-term results. When I’m not working with clients, I’m out exploring the world with my own dog, Koda—a spirited 18-month-old Australian Shepherd who keeps me on my toes every day!
