About

Daisy (Daiz) Wang, M.Ed., BCBA
Founder and Director

Daiz started her career working with children with autism in Vancouver in 2001. Her passion and drive to pursue research and best practices in implementation are fueled by the unwavering dedication of families to do the best for their children.

Daiz is active in the realm of autism research and has presented at a number of national and international conferences hosted by the Applied Behavior Analysis International (ABAI) and Association of Professional Behavior Analysis (APBA). She has also given workshops to families and paraprofessionals on a wide range of topics in the field of autism and early intervention. She is currently involved in research on video modeling and group social skills instruction.

Daiz is a certified provider of the UCLA PEERS^® program to teach social skills to teens with autism, as well as completed advanced training in the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM).
