- How long have you been at VBA and what is your position?· I have been with company since June 2016 and became a BCBA August 2020
- What inspired you to pursue a career in this field? I was inspired by our clients and their families. I am still working with some of our clients that I first started with and to see their progress inspires me to help even more families.
- What do you like the most about your position and the least? I love playing with kids and making them laugh. My ultimate favorite part is watching our clients utilize play skills that we did during the session and generalizing it with other individuals. My least favorite is driving.
