Program Director, Marion County (2005)

Hi!  I'm honored to be a part of PHPF and I'm glad you're visiting this site.  If you want the best resources in Marion County, then join us at our monthly support group meetings.  The best parents in town get together to share and learn from one another.  That's how I began my venture.  After my second child was diagnosed with Autism, I remember I attended a local group, feeling lost yet knowing that this was the way to do what was best f or our family:  my daughter Stephanie is 15, and my three sons Ben, 14, Nicholas, 12 and Joseph coming up on 6 years old.  My wonderful husband, Michael, is a good father and my number one support team member.  Having him as constant back up enables me to give back to special needs families in our community what was once given to me.  I am a Florida Atlantic University graduate with a BA in Psychology.  I am a Board Certified Associate Behavior Analyst and I am also ESE certified.  I taught special needs children at New Horizon Academy in Ocala for two years, and now teach with Marion County Public School System.  Prior to working in the special needs field, I was a youth minister for 11 years and also did a little work in fund-raising.  I enjoy creating memorable events for others, watching my kids grow, and meeting new people.  See you at the meetings.
