About Me

Hello! My name is Bianca and I live in South Florida with my husband and our dog. While I was born in Miami, I grew up in Northern California and then moved back to South Florida to begin my undergraduate studies at Florida International University. Fun fact – I met my now husband while studying at FIU! My hobbies include reading and traveling. A big part of who I am is that I love helping others and watching others succeed. With that being said, I originally was studying to become a pediatric physical therapist. While completing my coursework, I came across a job in applied behavior analysis and absolutely fell in love with the field. I loved that it was based in science and provided me the ability to help others. I worked as an RBT for five years, then as a BCaBA for two years, and I am now just shy of working as a BCBA for two years. I believe that working at different tiers of ABA has led me to being a stronger clinician today.

How I Practice

Working nine years in the field and with a variety of clientele really has helped mold me into the clinician I am today. I believe that applied behavior analysis services rooted in compassion and play are the most effective. Learning is supposed to be fun! I truly make it my goal to find new and creative ways to teach a skill so that it feels more like play than “work.”

My Favorite Experience Working In This Field

I will never forget that early on in my work in ABA, I had the pleasure of working with a family that had been told that their child would never vocally communicate and to not even bother trying to work on this skill. It broke my heart to find a family so defeated by this feedback. With hard work, consistency, play, and applying the basic principles of ABA, the child began using partial words to communicate needs in a matter of two weeks. This forever changed me and reinforced the idea that limitations should never be placed upon an individual and you never know what we can accomplish together.

Why I Love What I Do

I have always had a deep-rooted love for science and helping others. Finding behavior analysis provided me with the capacity to join these two passions. I have a genuine and true drive for helping others become the best versions of themselves. I value neurodiversity and am compelled to advocate of the neurodivergent and celebrating all our uniqueness. I love that applied behavior analysis has provided me with a platform to ensure everyone reaches their highest and best potential.
