I'm an energetic and compassionate professional with 11 years of both behavioral and ABA experience working with a wide range of developmental disabilities in various public and private care settings. 7 of those years I spent working at Anderson Center for Autism assisting individuals with Autism, ED, BD, Downs, and several other developmental disabilities; in both a residential and an educational setting. In the residences, I assisted special needs individuals in gaining independence with daily living skills, coping mechanisms, nutrition, hygiene, leisure activities, and social skills in various community settings. As well as engaging individuals in OT and PT using sensory methods. In both educational and residential settings, I have many qualifications and skills that are available in my resume that I would be happy to provide at any time. I am very passionate about what I do, and feel I have a unique skill set for helping people. I look forward to working with you!

    If you have a child with autism, Ryan is your person! He has been life-changing in helping my child with severe ASD navigate and thrive in his community. My child is extremely high-energy and active and Ryan has handled him with ease. Ryan is very active himself and plans great day trips for them - hiking, swimming, exploring new towns, the movies, even a trip to the Mall is fun for my son. You would be lucky to welcome Ryan into your family.
