I moved to Chicago after college where I taught at a private special education school. There, I taught a 3rd-5th grade life skills classroom where most of my students were functioning at the Kindergarten level. After moving back to Peoria, IL I've had a wide range of Life Skills jobs including an all autism class, instructional students, and students within academic inclusion.
After returning to grad school, I received a Masters Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and became a BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst). I worked in an outpatient clinic, and am now in the public school system.
