My mission is to inspire children and adults to be positive, compassionate, and kind through the story of my deafblind pink dog whose name is Piglet.
I also raise awareness, educate, advocate, and normalize disabilities in pets​ by helping pet parents learn about and gain confidence in caring for their disabled and senior pets.
​
My in-person and virtual presentations are interactive, engaging, and inspirational. My tiny deafblind dogs Piglet and Georgie add an adorable welcome dimension to my talks.

"Your page and your "pack" have been such a light, especially over these past two "heavy" years. While media and global news becomes harder to watch, Piglet and his Inclusion Pack are such a joy- thank you for the work you do and for sharing it with the world. There is still so much good in the world and it is important it shines!"
