I am PhD candidate in the Clinical Developmental Psychology program. I am currently completing my pre-doctoral residency. Prior to studying at York, I completed a Master’s degree in Applied Disability Studies (concentration in Applied Behaviour Analysis) at Brock University. I recently obtained my Board Certified Behaviour Analyst credential.
I have conducted research on autism spectrum disorder diagnostics and treatment and am particularly interested in the Picture Exchange Communication System. Over the past six years, I have worked extensively with children, adolescents and their families in a variety of settings including Hamilton Health Sciences, Surrey Place Centre, and the Toronto District School Board.
