Hi there! I am a college student studying applied behavioral analysis. My passion is helping children on the spectrum adapt to overstimulating environments such as daycare. I chose this career path after working at a daycare where I connected with many kids on the spectrum and their parents. I've also done more secluded work, such as triplet toddlers with one having ADD and a 5-year-old with ADHD. I am reliable, patient, and creative. My skills include multitasking, organizing, communication, and empathy.
