Profile
I love working at Developmental Enhancement, and I love working with our kids! It makes my day to see their smiles and to see the great things they achieve. I am grateful for the kind, supportive environment created by my coworkers. I believe that the principles of applied behavior analysis give us the tools to help kids learn new skills and to help families reach their goals.
I live a pretty quiet life. My hobbies include crafting, reading, and board games. I really enjoy cuddling up with my two cats and reading a good book under a warm blanket! I also love to craft, especially crochet and embroidery. I am a big crossword puzzle fan, too!
