Hi! My name is Maya, and I have over 10 years of experience working with children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. I started as a Direct Support Professional working in homes, the community and job sites, progressed in my career to be a Director of a day program for people with disabilities who had significant health needs, and provided supports through private care. I'm a quick learner, can immediately adapt to their needs, and approach people with patience, understanding and structure. I'm always happy to answer any questions!
