As a Social Worker I am passionate about working with those with special needs. My undergraduate degree is in Psychology, and my Master's is in Social work. I have experience working in hospitals and group homes with those with special needs. I additionally worked as a Community Support Companion for a young woman with Autism for a year. I currently work as an ABA therapist with children with developmental disabilities in school. I went into the social services field because I sincerely want to help better others' lives and I love working with a variety of individuals. No day is the same, and I have worked with and met some amazing people. I look forward to working with you!
