I am a compassionate Licensed Special Needs Teacher and Caregiver with two years experience supporting individuals of all ages, from k-12, special needs students and adults, including seniors up to 105 years old. I specialize in working with individuals with autism, non-verbal communication needs, and physical limitations. Using assistive technologies, I help non-verbal individuals communicate effectively while applying professional teaching techniques to encourage focus, skill development, and breaks when needed. My background as a physical therapy aide in orthopedic clinics and hospitals enhances my ability to assist with dressing, feeding, mobility, and recovery for clients with physical challenges. Families value my patient, kind, and gentle approach, balanced with proven strategies to foster independence and growth. I am dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing environment that promotes learning, comfort, and dignity for every individual I serve.
