I’m a biologist with a PhD in physiology from Copenhagen University, working as a full-time scientist in the corporate world.
I’m also the proud dog-mother of Chico, a rescue puppy sunshine that lit up our lives. He needed and still needs a lot of help to overcome a rough start in life. He is the main reason I started the journey to learn as much as I could to help him. He rescued me from the ordinary routine and triggered my scientific curiosity in the world of dog training.
That is how I discovered positive training and found Victoria Stilwell Academy. I became a Certified Dog Trainer at VSA and continue educating myself in the field by attending seminars, courses, and dog training conferences in Denmark and abroad.
I have found myself answering questions and giving advice to friends and colleagues facing challenges with their four-legged companions and realized all the knowledge I have gathered can be put to the service of other dogs and their families.
As a consequence, Science & Dogs was born as a combination of my two passions: science and dogs, with the goal to help dogs learn how to live in a human world and help families understand their furry friends.
For now, Science & Dogs will be a parallel career for me and I will help as many dogs as I can, on the side of my full-time scientist job.
My main focus is to help dogs coming from shelters or other troubled backgrounds. I know from my own experience, living with rescue dogs since childhood, what it takes to welcome a dog into your home, your family, and your heart. I also help families with dogs coming from a happier upbringing.
I am committed to making a difference for you and your dog and I’m sure all the “nerding” I have done (and continue to do) in dog training, can truly transform your dog’s life and help them become well-adjusted members of your family and community.
