  • I had worked in many ESE classrooms and with the ASD community for years in different capacities, but this was the first time I was implementing ABA, and I truly appreciate the efforts put forth by these people. I am proud to be a part of it.
  • I was shown how, and closely advised as to how, one implements interventions outlined in behavior plans with precision and accuracy.
  • I offered support within the center and also engaged one-on-one with assigned students, which varied from day to day.
  • I attended clients' schools and took data in real time, as well as followed through on interventions predetermined by the BCBA.
  • I built rapport with coworkers, parents, and clients to encourage that the most successful outcomes were possible.
  • Changed diapers, ensured proper hygiene from head to toe of my clients, and others in proximity. While I appreciate my experience with this company, it became very inconsistent due to a variety of considerations, and I quickly learned that I prefer working with a group of children, as opposed to the one-on-one, day in and day out.
  • Sometimes it's when we are given the opportunity to discover what we don't prefer, that we recognize our true path.

  • I worked for this company for the greater part of my career and took part in every facet of the day-to-day. I often managed complex appointment scheduling for high volumes of my personal clientele, often seeing more than 12 clients per 8-hour shift.
  • I build great rapport and develop long-lasting relationships with clients, resulting in a high rate of customer retention and loyalty.
  • I expanded my clientele by offering unique services, such as beard trims, hot towel shaves, and facial grooming treatments.
  • I was known for taking junior barbers under my wing and mentoring them by sharing expertise on cutting techniques and best practices for maintaining a professional image within the salon environment.

  • During this time, I would also volunteer to do haircuts at a church close to my home in Brooklyn, NY, that was best known for community outreach to those struggling with alcohol, leading to their homelessness. The pastor and I got together and arranged for free haircuts on the same nights that they served hot meals, and basic shower accessibility.
  • Completed safety training and certifications to minimize the risk of infection or injury to customers.
  • Handled administrative tasks such as appointment scheduling, inventory management, and cash handling to ensure smooth salon operations.
