My Story
I started working with children with ASD as an undergraduate research assistant in college. I fell in love with the children and decided to pursue a job as a registered behavior technician following graduation. I went back to school and got my BCBA certification after realizing how much I loved the field. There is nothing better than helping a child work on a skill and seeing the light in their eyes when they’ve finally achieved it. I am excited to be a part of the Eyas Landing team!
My Professional Goals
- My goal is to one day become a mentor or consultant to help young adults/adults with ASD work through dating, social interactions, and communication barriers that arise with friendships and relationships.
- I would also love to teach others who are less knowledgeable about ASD in schools, workplaces, etc. to increase inclusion and acceptance.
My Clinical Expertise
- Applied Behavior Analysis
- Autism Spectrum Disorder
- Trauma-Informed Care
- Shaping/Desensitization
- Natural Environment Teaching
