I grew up with a non-verbal special needs brother with: ADHD, autism, cerebral palsy, and leaky gut syndrome. This allowed me first hand experience with children on the spectrum and how to adjust and behaving accordingly. I have ABA training as I am certified by Stavros as a caregiver for my brother. I was the president of my high schools Special Olympics, along with being a current Best Buddies partner.
