Animals and Ann have always had a bond. Since childhood she has "talked" to the animals and they have answered her. However, as with most different children, she was told this wasn't possible and to quit saying such silly things.
Horses and dogs have been Ann's first love, but she has worked with and cherished many different species.
Her degree in Animal Health from the University of Minnesota enabled Ann to do what some animal lovers only dream of. She worked for USDA Veterinary Services in the Animal Welfare program. This gave her hands on contact with circus animals, exotic animals and birds, research animals, livestock and domestic animals. Bottle feeding a baby elephant, holding day old tiger cubs, petting giraffes and walking side by side with the bears were but a few of the wonderful contacts she enjoyed.
After managing a large scale mobile vaccination clinic she turned to another love, helping the helpless. She founded and ran a humane society. She then began pet sitting.
Because of a very special friend, "V",

Ann opened her heart and mind and embraced her gift.
She began her training with Mary Stoffel and found communication very easy for her. Ann continues to train under others as well as ongoing training with Mary. After much practice doing communication for both friends and strangers she now offers her gift to all.
