I love working with kids and adolescents. I have a degree in special education and have been a special education teacher for students with moderate to severe disabilities for four years. I have been working with youth with autism for 7 years and have a special niche in working with kids who have autism. I love to help youth work on becoming more independent at home, in school and the community. I work on academics, social skills, adaptive/life skills and leisure skills. I have a Bachelor's degree in Special Education from University of Wisconsin - Madison and am currently pursuing my MSW at FAU.
