Strategic Fixer|Behavior Trend Analyst|Education Management|Organizational Change|Restorative Justice Advocate ๐ŸŽ“BS Speech &Language Pathology ๐ŸŽ“MS Psychology-Applied Behavior Analysis My motto when taking on new clients whether its an individual, family, or an organization is to be a *focused๐Ÿ‘‚๐Ÿพ, *keen ๐Ÿ‘€, and keep a *closed ๐Ÿ™Š. ๐Ÿ—ฃTalking is for sharing knowledge, techniques, and insights...it is impossible to do that without first listening and observing. You need a panoramic ๐Ÿชview of the situation. ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸพI believe in taking time to learn the culture of any new space I enter. ๐Ÿ‘‚๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ™Š Auditory & Visual learner ๐ŸŽ“๐Ÿ“š(hence my love for this new platform!). I provide training and teaching through modeling. I donโ€™t believe in the saying โ€œyou can lead a ๐ŸŽ to ๐Ÿ’ง but canโ€™t make them drinkโ€. I believe we all get thirsty! My job is to identify the beverage that speaks to your palate. Maybe youโ€™re the horse that prefers ๐Ÿท๐Ÿบ๐Ÿพโ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿต๐Ÿง‰๐Ÿฅ›๐Ÿงƒ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿง‹. I have had success with restructuring the thinking of staff that were described as โ€œstuck in their waysโ€ or โ€œold schoolโ€. When asked what I did my response was โ€œ Iโ€™m a behavior warrior๐Ÿ‘ธ๐Ÿพwith Jedi mind tricksโ€. ๐Ÿคฃ My top two favorite school setting contracts have been- 1-Alternative students. Most of them were gang related. Had hurt several staff members prior to and while I was an employee. I have so many success stories! *Ask me to share! 2-Montessori school teachers. Happiest environment Iโ€™ve ever worked in! A little tough to get them to do any techniques that arenโ€™t directly Montessori created. *Ask me how I helped them achieve success! Part of my support involves a generalization plan. This way those I help use those skills across settings in their life or organization. A way to pay it forward ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’š. One of my goals is to establish a program that provides behavior based transition plans for woman in domestic violence shelters. Guide them to seeing the ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฟ ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ, independent, and powerful๐Ÿ‘ธ๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ‘ธ๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘ธ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘ธ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘ธ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘ธ they are! People see the scars and bruises but the effects of emotional and psychological abuse creates learned behavioral habits. Habits that can keep them entering new phases of the same vicious cycle. Favorite quote โ€œbest predictor of future behavior is....data collection!โ€ BehaviorGuru Believer in the use of data trends๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿ“Š to set attainable goals. My IG Is under ๐Ÿ› .
