Hi! My name is Markell, and I have over 10 years of experience working with children and adults with disabilities, with extensive experience supporting children with autism. I have worked with respected organizations including Sheppard Pratt, Kennedy Krieger Institute, and The Linwood Center. I am patient, compassionate, dependable, and committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for every person in my care. I understand that every individual has different needs, routines, communication styles, and preferences, and I take the time to learn what works best for them. Although my strongest experience is with autism, I am open to working with individuals with all types of disabilities. I am willing to learn new care techniques and routines, and I welcome guidance from families who know their loved one best. My goal is to provide dependable care while treating every person with dignity, patience, and respect.
