Hi, I'm Marian! I'm passionate about caring for those with special needs because I have experienced the wonders and frustrations that accompany such care first hand. I grew up in a home with 24-hour nursing care: my brother had a rare form of muscular dystrophy, and utilized a ventilator as well as a wheelchair, and my youngest brother has trisomy-21 Down syndrome. For the past 4+ years I have been working as a DSP for multiple FI's across Long Island with individuals with Down Syndrome, FND, Tourette's, OCD, Leukodystrophies, and those on the ASD Spectrum. I am also an active member of organizations and nonprofits who's work centers around young adults with special needs, serving on their committees and advisory boards in many positions. I'd love to meet you and your family and see if I would be the right fit for your needs, dreams, and care!
