Hi! I'm a certified RBT with training in CPR, conflict de-escalation, mandated reporting and food safety. Beyond my professional credentials I try to continually educate myself in order to improve my caregiving. I am a huge proponent of play therapy, trauma informed care and client dignity. Most of my professional experience is working with kids between 3-8 who are neuro diverse. I work at an ABA clinic and utilize forms of communication such as AAC devices, sign language (PSE), gestures and verbal cues. I am passionate about promoting self-regulation, mindfulness and independence with my clients and their families. Prior to this I was a supervisor for Blizzard Ski and Snowboard School for several seasons. and also help with special needs. A few random facts about me is I have two cats, I love being creative and I happen to be a vegan (but man do I miss fried chicken).
