What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue supporting students with diverse learning, behavioral, and developmental needs through inclusive instruction, IEP implementation, behavioral intervention, and multidisciplinary collaboration.

I've supported students with autism, multiple disabilities, emotional and behavioral challenges, and diverse learning needs across elementary, middle, and secondary settings. Most recently, I developed IEPs and delivered differentiated instruction at Luis Ramos Elementary School.

My work combines special education instruction, ABA-informed behavioral support, assessment, and collaboration with families, therapists, psychologists, and school teams. I'm fluent in English, French, and Haitian-Creole, with beginner American Sign Language.
