Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) Therapist at Dream Big Children's Center

At Dream Big Monrovia I worked home based cases as an ABA therapist. This position allowed me to help my clients work towards their goals, build rapport with them and their interests, as well as working towards a sense of independency. I left this job due to complications that occurred at the time with my family that led me to having to relocate.
