Present

Through my last 3 years doing angel investing, I have built a vast network through which I keep connections with founders, VC owners, investors, family offices, and private equity funds. I have made 7-10 investments over the last four years. I keep in touch with many VC founders as well who source deals and teach me more about the market as they have been in the industry for longer than I have. I am in the process of launching my own VC fund that focuses on three primary verticals: real estate and franchises, series A/B and beyond, pre-seed/seed socially conscious companies. I have made personal angel investments in all three verticals already and aim to continue to scale businesses in this space.

The program consisted of intake forms for both the child and caregivers, a guide for therapists to follow to use with clients of varying verbal, social, and functional skills. The program also had a full set of items that could be used to help the clients understand or modify the activity so that value is derived. This was a huge huge upgrade from what any ABA clinic was doing at the time. I had interviewed at many clinics and worked at three prior to this and none had a system like this in place, so I was adamant at getting my chance to make this happen. I worked outside of my work hours to get this program together and was very proud when it came together. The company still uses the program to this day, and that is a giant compliment for me! It makes the process much smoother for both the therapists and t…
