The pathway to BCBA certification is more complex than it appears from the outside. Candidates must navigate academic program selection, supervised fieldwork experience requirements, coursework alignment with BACB task list content, and the examination process itself — all while working in clinical or educational settings that vary enormously in their capacity to provide high-quality mentorship and skill development.

I’m a founder, strategist, and storyteller at the intersection of healthcare, behavioral science, and technology. My work focuses on identifying emerging trends, building high-impact products and platforms, and helping mission-driven companies scale—particularly in autism services and behavioral health.I’ve spent my career working across startups, private equity, and enterprise organizations, helping companies navigate growth, innovation, and transformation. I’m especially drawn to the complex challenges in care delivery—how we diagnose, treat, and support individuals and families—and how technology, policy, and business models can work together to create meaningful change.I founded the Autism Investor Summit, a premier event that brings together providers, payers, investors, and entrepreneurs shaping the future of autism services. It was acquired by WTWH Media and continues to grow as a leading forum for dialogue, connection, and deal-making. I also advise companies like Frontera, which is building AI-powered diagnostic tools, and Theradriver, which is creating a cognitive AI layer for care delivery.I’m also a mom of two, and that perspective fuels everything I do. I care deeply about the future we’re building—for families, providers, and the people at the heart of behavioral healthcare.
