A little bit about me

Hi, I am Kathryn! I’m currently working as a Registered Behavior Technician and finishing my graduate studies at The University of Texas, with experience working in both clinic and school settings.

I’m comfortable managing schedules, anticipating needs, and helping with daily routines. I’ve also worked closely with families to keep households organized and running smoothly, and I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, consistent space where kids can thrive.
