Summary
As a diligent college student majoring in sociology, my focus lies in exploring the sociological dimensions of ABA therapy. My commitment to timely project completion and adaptability extends beyond the academic realm to encompass a comprehensive understanding of the broader societal implications of ABA therapy. Collaborating as a team-oriented individual, I prioritize fair task distribution in group projects, acknowledging the significance of diverse perspectives within the context of ABA interventions. Driven by a shared commitment to achieving goals, I aim to seamlessly connect the individual-centric nature of ABA therapy with its societal impacts, promoting a holistic approach to behavioral intervention that takes into account the wider social context.
