Melissa’s Bio

I am a 26 year old disability specialist looking for work while I get my masters so I can advance my work in the field of championing the disability community. I love kids and I'm patient with adults. I'm also an excellent tutor, however my focus is on developing communication and social/emotional skills and fluency for a more fulfilling life. Though I often work in ABA I'm finding it to be less of a fit lately because of my focus on autonomy and a satisfying internal life and preference for a strength based approach.
17 years of special needs experience, disability activist, 17 years non verbal experience, 8+ years autism experience, 2 years aba experience.
