For 3 years, I studied special education at a state university. During my second clinical experience, I realized that the classroom was not for me. I still wanted to work with individuals with special needs. I graduated with a degree in Human and Education Services, and completed an internship with a special recreation association in Illinois. There, I assisted and implemented different therapeutic recreation programs for children and adults with special needs. I have some experience doing ABA as well. I love working with individuals with special needs for various reasons. I love seeing them succeed in things others may not think possible. I also love to see the smile on their face when they accomplish something they've worked so hard on.
