I am a compassionate and experienced caregiver and special education professional with over 15 years of dedicated service supporting individuals with developmental disabilities, especially those on the autism spectrum. My background includes working in home, school, and community environments, where I provide personalized support that fosters independence, confidence, and meaningful daily engagement. I specialize in helping individuals build life skills, improve communication, and navigate everyday routines-whether at home, in social settings, or out in the community. I am skilled in using strategies grounded in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), promoting safety, consistency, and positive behavior. I pride myself on building trusting relationships with both individuals and their families, and I am committed to helping each person I work with lead a fulfilling and empowered life.
