I've been working with children with special needs since the age of 12. At that age, I began working with a young boy with autism and fell in love with him and the field all together. Since then, I have worked with a variety of children with special needs at a summer camp. I've checked sugar levels for children with diabetes. I've worked with children who are nonverbal, very aggressive, and low functioning. I also have experience with transfer and lifting for those in wheelchairs. I have been dedicated to this field for nine years now, and have a Master's degree in Applied Behavior Analysis and Autism. I'm currently a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA)
