About the store
I have 20 years of experience working with children with behavioral diagnoses. I have helped develop classrooms for children with autism spectrum disorders in both a local school system and a local private school, and was involved in all aspects from designing the optimal layout for the classroom, to helping coordinate child and staff schedules, to creating behavior plans and training staff in the use of those plans. I then provided ongoing consultation and support to classroom staff for multiple years. I have worked with multiple school districts and private schools to provide consultation services in special education classrooms, been hired to attend numerous IEP meetings for children throughout the state, and have conducted many special educator trainings.
