I have worked with children and adults with a wide range of disabilities, including Quadriplegia (Spinal Cord Injury), Autism (experienced with ABA and challenging behaviors), ADD/ADHD, Tourette's Syndrome, Deafness/Hard of Hearing (including Cochlear Implants), Spina Bifida, Emotional needs, Epilepsy (LGIT controlled for 2 years, trained for use of Diastat), Blindness/Visually Impaired, and learning disabilities. I love to encourage independence and help find ways for kids to be kids regardless of their disability. I enjoy the challenge of thinking outside the box to accomplish new goals. (A blind student ran laps with me this year even though he didn't think he could). I take pride in being a caring, reliable, and empathetic young adult. I love the challenge of thinking outside the box and tailoring my job to each individual that I work with and enjoy bridging the social gap that is far too often created when a disability is present.
