Marissa's passion for helping others began at a young age through volunteering with her dad at the Special Olympics and growing up with a cousin on the autism spectrum. Those experiences inspired her to pursue a career where she could make a meaningful difference in the lives of children with autism. Since entering the ABA field in 2023, Marissa has been passionate about empowering children with autism to reach their full potential while increasing their independence and overall quality of life. She loves celebrating each child's progress, and seeing the confidence, growth, and joy that come from those achievements is what motivates her to continue doing the work she loves.
