“I started my career working with children with autism in Vancouver in 2001. I am active in the realm of autism research and have presented at a number of national and international conferences hosted by the Applied Behavior Analysis International (ABAI) and Association of Professional Behavior Analysis (APBA). I am 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). When I am not working with families and children, I enjoy spending time outdoors running, swimming, and climbing.”

“My favorite part of my work is partnering with staff and students through life’s joys and difficulties, year by year, week by week, hour by hour. I pride myself on my own blend of professionalism and silliness, and have been working in ABA just shy of 15 years. My proudest moment with Social Collaborative was receiving anonymous feedback that our staff feel supported by their supervision team. My fun facts are that I have an inordinate amount of love for my 2007 manual FJ Cruiser and think a day is only wasted if I haven’t read a poem.”

“I joined the Social Collaborative team because I’m passionate about teaching and assisting youth. My favorite thing about my work is getting the opportunity to see growth and experience it. Working with kids and teens in development grants the honor of witnessing someone achieve their goals, grow as an individual and feel proud of themselves. Outside of work I am a percussion instructor for the marching arts. Music is another passion of mine and so is art! I love to draw and create stories in my free time!”
