**** ****** ****, ******** *******, CO 80917 C: 479-***-**** ******@******.*** My last four years experience has been working with persons living with disabilities, specifically ASD, as a Behavioral Assistant. I am working on a undergraduate degree in Social Work and hope to move on to an advanced degree as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My goal is to work with adults living with ASD and other developmental disorders.

I am an energetic, motivated employee who is highly organized and skilled at balancing the needs of clients in both personal and professional capacities. But I have a passion working with persons diagnosed with ASD.
