Current Projects

I am very excited about completing my 2nd year in a PhD program at Texas State University. I am researching school improvement that will identify and rectify systemic injustice for individuals with autism.

Through my private practice, Raising the Ground, we have successfully created several social groups for individuals with emotional challenges, ADHD, and autism to practice skills in a community setting. 

I am an active advocate for autism both with my own group, Families with Autism, and the Autism Society of Texas and the Autism Society of America. Along with my family and son who is an individual with autism, we are strong advocates for lifelong supports and services, especially for those with high functioning autism (HFA).
