My Bio




A bit about me:


I'm a Behavior Analyst from Atlanta, GA. Welcome to my site!



The 'I Love ABA!' blog was born in 2011, as a way for me to freely share the ins and outs of being an ABA practitioner, to both professionals and laypersons.

I've been providing ABA services since early 2003. My career in ABA started when I discovered a parent made flyer on my college campus for what I assumed would be a babysitting job. The job turned out to be an entry -level ABA therapy position working with an adorable 6-year-old. This initial introduction to ABA therapy would prove to the unexpected start of a career path.

From those early days working with just a a few kids, I am now a published author, blogger, webinar/CE/online content creator, and I regularly consult with schools, organizations, ABA agencies, mental health treatment facilities, and families all over the world, to provide training and general consultation. My primary clinical passion includes early intervention and shaping/mentoring future clinicians. 


A dissatisfaction with arrogant professionals who talk over the heads of families led me to a zeal for high-quality parent training. Parent coaching is my favorite part of my job. I enjoy taking complicated concepts and making them simple to digest.


That's what this website is all about: sharing ABA in a way that is non-intimidating and SIMPLE to grasp.
