What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can combine direct behavioral intervention and clinical research with data analysis, in collaborative, evidence-driven teams that support professional growth.

I am a psychology graduate with hands-on experience delivering ABA therapy and supporting clinical research, blending direct-client care with rigorous data analysis.

At ACES Autism Therapy Center, I designed personalized therapy programs and collected hundreds of behavior data points weekly to drive measurable gains; in clinical and dental roles I applied R and database management to optimize operations and patient outcomes.

I bring strong technical skills in R, Python, and database management, multilingual communication in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese, and a commitment to evidence-based practice that improves client engagement and research quality.
