Miranda has over ten years of experience in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). For the past eight years, she has also worked as an autism and behavior consultant in the public school system.
Her journey into becoming an ABA began while completing her undergraduate degree in education. She gained visibility to the field through her roommate, who was working at an ABA center. “I eventually joined her at the center and quickly became passionate about the work we were doing. Witnessing the positive impact it had on the children and their families inspired me to further my education in the field.” Miranda chose to pursue her BCBA certification after getting her teaching license.

She went on to pursue a Master’s degree in Applied Behavior Analysis, graduating from Ball State University in 2015 with a specialization in autism spectrum disorders.

” I chose this profession because I always wanted to help people. I was interested in working with kids when I began my bachelor’s in psychology. I was introduced to this job and immediately fell in love with our work! Seeing the change that we can make so rapidly is quite rewarding. I knew that I would want to do this work for the rest of my career. “
