I have worked with various special needs (social, emotional and behavioral needs as well as developmental disorders). I have extensive training in verbal de-escalation and am trained in physical management (PMT). I have worked in camps and school with a wide range of ages. I am a very warm person and strive to create strong connections with the children I work with. I am currently in college and hope to earn my BCBA and PhD with a focus in Autism because I absolutely love these children! I generally try to create programs and activities that are both fun and educational and catered to the appropriate level for each child.
