About

The first game he bagged was a ringneck rooster, albeit not over the staunch point of a fine bird dog. Because of that experience, he found himself owning and training pointing dogs in order to recreate that outdoor magazine cover experience.
Having spend 30 years in management roles ranging from high tech to heavy manufacturing; conducting training has been an integral part of his career. This training expertise extends to training a trainee, in this case the pointing dogs; to training the trainer, which would be the reader of this book. His training acumen is further demonstrated by his current role as a full-time faculty in the business school at Penn State.
The author holds a BA in Journalism, a Master’s in Higher Ed, and a Master’s in Labor Relations, with a concentration in Training. He uses his educational background as a basis as well as LEAN Concepts to train his dogs, which have two Pennsylvania State Open Pheasant Hunting Championships to their credit.
