What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead training and operations in a behavioral/education environment, combining HR oversight with data-driven IEP/behavior support and compassionate, organized service to clients, staff, and students.

Hello! My name is Megan Horton and I have been a Special Education teacher since 2018 and a Clinical Administer for a behavioral clinic for nearly 3 years. I graduated from Eastern Illinois University and then went on to get my Master’s at Ball State. I am a huge hockey fan (go Blues!) and family gal who loves being outside… but I definitely do not mind an evening reading. I read a novel a week and have held on to this “title” for over a year now (huge book nerd!). I live in Franklin with my husband, Zac. We have a dog: Kanan, a cat: Tilly, and a rambunctious son: Callum. I appreciate your time in reading about me and cannot wait to learn more about you!
