Summary
Experienced RBT eager to continue to grow in the field of ABA. Worked in various different settings ranging from the school setting, to a clinic, and working in homes. ABA continues to grow and adapt to the changes made in the behavioral field every year. The importance of helping neurodivergent children and teens is something that should be prioritized by caregivers and peers. Assisting learners in adapting to their environment is only half the job. Ensuring that peers and adults understand the importance of acceptance is essential as well.

Additional Information
I am the TOPSoccer Coordinator at Swansboro Soccer Association. This program aims to provide a safe and fun environment for neurodivergent players, as well as players with physical disabilities, the opportunity to play soccer. This also creates a safe social environment where all players can interact with each other if they choose to do so as well as advocating for independent play. This program also provides an opportunity for neurotypical players to volunteer their time for a great cause.
