I am a team player with more than 20 years of experience supporting the special needs/education industry in various roles. Highly motivated and able to multi-task, I have assumed several roles, including program manager, case manager, and behavior Health Technician (BHT) for several organizations, developing personal and scholastic goals for students, leading Person Center Service Plan (PCSP) meetings with faculty and parents, supporting day-to-day classroom activities, and coordinating hiring activities. I possess the interpersonal skills needed to succeed in this industry, have a natural gift for nurturing others, and am passionate about helping people learn the skills needed to live better lives.
