Biography
I began working at Montclair State University in April of 2021 in the Center for Autism and Early Childhood Mental Health. My work integrates early childhood education and mental health consultation to guide professionals to be responsive rather than reactive when caring for young children and their families, and is supported by various grants for statewide partners. Currently, I am serving as a Pyramid Model Implementation Program and Practitioner Coach, and training facilitator; as well as organizing, offering, and tracking statewide professional development opportunities in Pyramid Model Modules for ECE professionals to access.
