Kylie R.

I spent the majority of my undergraduate degree at Iowa State University and graduated from Buena Vista University with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. I have experience working with children through providing respite services and as a private and group swim instructor. These experiences have allowed me to work with children with different needs and abilities while developing my skills in communication, patience, safety, and adapting to each child's individual needs. My background in psychology, combined with my hands-on experience with children, has encouraged me to pursue a career as a Behavior Technician, where I can help children develop new skills, build confidence, and reach their individual goals in a positive and supportive environment. As a BT, I hope to create meaningful connections with the children I work with while encouraging their growth, independence, and success at their own pace. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, cooking, and spending time with my own children, who have further strengthened my appreciation for the importance of patience, understanding, and creating an environment where children feel supported and encouraged.
