Compassionate behavior technician and advisor delivering data-driven care and support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Behavior Technician and experienced advisor with 15+ years across clinical care, education, and administrative roles. I bring compassionate support across diverse settings—assisting physicians, monitoring patient well-being, and implementing behavioral interventions—while staying focused on quality outcomes and client satisfaction.
In specialized educational settings, I support students with developmental, emotional, and behavioral disabilities by assisting with IEP implementation and collecting behavioral data to track progress. Across patient care roles, I’ve monitored vital signs, maintained detailed activity logs, supported ADLs, and helped ensure safety through de-escalation and consistent documentation.
