Speaks English, Sign Language (ASL)

I have a strong passion for working with individuals on the autism spectrum. In this field, I get to play detective in figuring what motivates an individual to share his/her passions with me so we can learn together. I have experience in school, clinic, and home settings. However, I enjoy working in the most natural setting; the home. I have education in verbal behavior, ABA, and Son Rise. I absolutely enjoy working alongside with the parents/caregivers. I feel it is very important to focus on what is important for both the child and the family's needs. Every family lives a different lifestyle from one another. I will try anything in terms of activities, at least once. I have taken children out in the community to restaurants, amusement parks, nature centers, science centers, pools, you name it! I love to dance and play soccer in my free time, and I like to encourage the individuals I work with to be active in some way as well. I can't wait to meet you and your family, thank you for your consideration!
