Beacon Autistic Spectrum Independence Center
Clinical Director
I oversee behavioral therapy programs for children with developmental disabilites.
I get into work around 9am. I respond to emails and phone calls. I then attend meetings with upper management. I meet with a team of therapists. I review reports, and then I conduct behavioral assessments or meet with clients.

"I honestly never encountered any noise. I was always told I should never ever give up and strive to be the best I can be. I was always encouraged to pursue an education and to stop at nothing to be successful."
