After college, I began working as a Direct Support Professional in a group home for adults with developmental disabilities. Working in this environment was my greatest learning experience and one that is so special to me. I later worked for the same agency as a Community Habilitation worker, with young adults. Starting off as a paraprofessional transitioned into teaching, I have been working in District 75 in NYC for 10+ years. I teach students who have autism and are multi-sensory, hands-on learners. I love working in this field because I learn something new every single day.
