14950 W 64th. Ave., Arvada CO 80007

Registered Behavioral Technician

I provided support and worked for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder at a clinic located in Arvada, CO. As a Behavioral Technician, I was primarily tasked with individually working with several different children, typically handling between three to four children on a daily basis, and occasionally simultaneously engaging with two children briefly (to help out), all ranging between the ages of 2 to 14 years old. These children exhibited a range of behaviors on the Autism Spectrum Disorder chart, varying from mild to severe behavioral disorders. This allowed me to gain experience in dealing with diverse levels of behavioral challenges.I provided reports and updates to three BCBAs, depending on which BCBA is responsible for the child's case. Although I derived great satisfaction from my job, unfortunately, a knee injury impeded my ability to effectively engage with the children due to physical restrictions.
