I have a wealth of experience working with special needs individuals. I began at age 19 working as an ABA therapist and then went on to teach high school students with a variety of disabilities including challenging behaviors. I have also worked at a private school with provided education strictly for students with autism spectrum disorders. I currently work part time in the mental health field. I'm looking to work part time with kids as well because I miss having them in my life - I treat the kids I work with like family!
