I have 25 years experience in a group setting as well as experience with 1:1 setting. I am super fun, energetic and caring. I have created fun activities, social outings, and programs, field trips (local and overnight) , theatre programs, and created the first overnight (month long) camping experience for those with disabilities. I am proficient in handling challenging behaviors, and calming down escalating behaviors. I have done sensitivity training to groups all over the city. My brother in law has Prader Willi Syndrome and I work with him all the time also. Working with special needs is a part of who I am and would love the chance to talk to any of you regarding employment.
