Working with people with disabilities was introduced to me at a young age by having a sister with a severe intellectual disability. By high school, I knew I wanted to become a special education teacher. Throughout undergrad, I worked as an ABA therapist for children who have autism and worked in a before-school program. As a special education teacher, I have 3 years of experience in the classroom working with students who have autism, intellectual disability, Multiple disabilities, ADHD, epilepsy, and DHH.
