ABOUT ME

My passion lies in providing awareness and educational content to those facing challenges in the Autism community.
My Personal Struggles
Growing up, my family and I were alone in addressing the challenging behaviors and skill deficits my brother had due to his symptoms of Autism. I did not know about ABA until I was entering my Master's Degree program....that took WAY too long.
There was no reason why my family and I did not have access to ABA resources for help other than this one simple fact: No one ever told us about it. Not a doctor, a teacher, a specialist...no one. We were on our own.
The first part of my mission is simple: Be the change I want to see. A lack of resources for families within the Autism community stops with me. I am breaking the cycle of families being left in the dark.
My Passion For Helping You
After learning that ABA existed and how much it could have helped my family, I knew I needed to do all that I could to help families not struggle the way mine did.
Upon entering the field of ABA, I quickly learned that the lack of information did not stop with the families. Even ABA professionals like myself struggled to gain access to reliable training resources and hands-on experience.
Therefore, the second part of my mission is another simple goal: Do what I am called to do. My passion and calling is to make sure professionals like myself have access to imperative information to extend their knowledge base.
