About

I first collaborated with the Asheville TEACCH Center in 1996 as a graduate student at WCU, subsequently collecting my dissertation data through the center and DEC’s with Laura Klinger as my dissertation chair at the University of Alabama. Following internship and post-doc, we returned to Asheville in 2003, where I have practiced as a psychologist for the past 17 years, with a focus on psychological/diagnostic testing and neurodevelopmental disorders broadly, and more specific interest and expertise in ASD and evaluation of young children (0-5).
