Jennifer is the Lead Licensed Behavior Analyst with Centra’s Autism and Developmental Services Clinic where she has practiced since 2015. Prior to coming to Centra she served as an Autism Specialist with several public-school districts in both Virginia and Maryland.
She completed her coursework and supervision for her Board of Applied Behavior Analysis at George Mason University.
Jennifer has always believed that families should have access to quality evidence-based treatment regardless of location. Having worked in different areas of the state, she saw a difference in availability of services in less populated areas. She says, "it’s been a joy to be a part of a clinic who is leading the way in comprehensive treatment for children with Autism in southwest Virginia where I grew up."
In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, going to local festivals and yearly trips to the beach.
