Michele Forto Peak Experience

The Super Glue

Mom of three, husky wrangler of 36 sled dogs, pursuer of fine bourbon, keeper of bees and roller coaster geek.

A multi-career entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience. Not only am I the operating manager for Dreamchaser Leadership, but I am also the Lead Trainer for Dog Works Training Co. I co-host for Dog Works Radio, a podcast producing content for 14 years. I am the kennel manager for a sled dog kennel with 36 dogs called Team Ineka that I operate with my partner where we take adventure-minded individuals and students from two local universities on expeditions in the wilds of Alaska. I handle a side hustle called First Paw Coffee. I couldn’t do any of these things without the foundational training I received working as a paralegal for nearly 20 years.

I get things done.

I have worked in companies with five separate departments, I have worked for small law offices, and I have worked for myself. I know what it takes to maintain that spark to keep things going and know when to take charge and be in a supportive role. Because of this experience, I can help teach your staff how to operate optimally with cohesion.

I am still on my academic journey. I am in the Doctor of Strategic Leadership program and working on starting my project. I have a Master’s in Sports Management and business coaching. My undergraduate degree is in Kinesiology from the University of Alaska-Anchorage.
