Hello, my name is Andrew and I was born and raised in Washington, and I live in the Seattle area. Currently, I work with students with severe and profound autism, in addition to other individuals with disabilities at the high school level in a self-contained classroom setting. I also have experience working at the elementary and middle school levels. Through 7+ years of my experience working in the educational field, in-home and respite care, residential habilitation facilities, as well as coaching for Special Olympics, and other athletic activities I have had the unique opportunity of meeting a lot of people with various disabilities. These individuals have had such a positive and unforgettable impact on defining the person that I am today. I want to continue to make a positive impact on the lives of people that truly need the support that they deserve.
