While working with SISU, my primary job responsibility included the conduction of 1:1 Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy in a school-based environment. I observed, monitored, and recorded the daily behaviors of children on the Autism Spectrum using accurate behavior-consequence data collection, graphs, and anecdotal notes. Afterwards, I updated records and prepared reports to outline future program actions, results, and recommended improvements for the supervising analyst's review. I utilized different data entry software to document client information, progress notes, and treatment plans. Halfway through my employment with SISU, I focused my time assisting my supervisor with different leadership tasks related to developing the ABA program as a whole, overseeing client-specific programs, and working with clients' parents/guardians on developing these client-specific goals at home.
