Behavior analysis is a science, not a service model 🙄 Here's many other applications other than autism & related disabilities: ➡️ Behavioral Sports Psychology ➡️ Clinical Behavior Analysis ➡️ Health & Fitness 💁‍♀️ ➡️ Substance Use Disorders ➡️ Behavioral Gerontology ➡️ Brain Injury Rehabilitation ➡️ Education ➡️ Organizational Behavior Management ➡️ Behavior Pediatrics ➡️ Child Maltreatment Intervention & Prevention ➡️ Environmental Sustainability ➡️ Public Health (BACB, 2026) Reducing the science to one population limits its impact. If you've ever felt curious about applying the science outside of autism services, you're not weird. You're thinking like a Behavior Analyst! 🤓 If you're a BCBA or trainee who sees behavior science beyond one setting, you'll probably like it here 💪📈 #bcba #bcaba #abagradstudent #abahealthandfitness #abahumor

Every time I started a new adventure in my career, I heard things like: “Are you sure you can even do that?” “Is that ethical?” “Wouldn’t it be easier to just go work at a clinic?” “But you won’t make any money” It got pretty discouraging but I knew I had to move past all the negativity because there HAD to be more options out there than working at a shitty chain clinic providing mediocre autism intervention services and burning myself out. I could not accept the fact that settling for a job I didn’t want was my only choice after spending 7 years of my life in school and investing nearly $65,000 in my education. So I built my dream career instead, piece by piece, mostly through side hustles and an unconventional full-time job. I’ve been able to expand my career and use my BCBA skills in behavioral gerontology, fitness training and nutrition coaching, mental health, criminal justice and law enforcement training, and more. And guess what? I’m making pretty good money doing it, too. Don’t limit yourself. The science of behavior really can be used anywhere. Get creative! #bcba #boardcertifiedbehavioranalyst #aba #abaoutsideautism #behaviorchange

My dissertation explores how we can move culturally responsive practice in ABA from conversation to measurable action. Using a single-case experimental design, I am teaching practicing BCBAs specific, observable skills related to cultural humility, including self-reflection, open-ended questioning, and meaningful stakeholder inclusion. The study evaluates the effects of video modeling combined with pyramidal training to determine whether these strategies increase the use of culturally responsive behaviors in real clinical practice. At its core, this research is about accountability. If we say cultural responsiveness matters, then we must be able to define it behaviorally, teach it systematically, and measure it objectively. This work sits at the intersection of radical behaviorism, ethics, and equity, and it is my contribution to ensuring that compassionate, culturally grounded care is not just encouraged, but empirically supported. If you’re interested in being a participant in my research, stay tuned for recruitment flyers coming soon! #RoadToDrQ

Yes I have a master’s degree. Yes I cried over math homework. Both are true #bcba#inclusivesmiles #bcbalife #aba #behavioranalysis

Since the start of 2026, I’ve built 10 different income streams as a BCBA because our expertise was never meant to fit in one box. ✨ Independent consulting ✨ Teaching at the graduate level ✨ Supervision & mentorship ✨ Tutoring ✨ Public speaking & appearances ✨ Professional development trainings ✨ Publications ✨ Social media brand deals & partnerships ✨ CEU collaborations ✨ Opening my own ABA clinic Being well-rounded doesn’t mean being overworked, it means being well-positioned for early retirement. If you’re a BCBA ready to monetize your expertise and expand beyond the traditional path… welcome!!! you’re in the right place. 😘

Noticing gaps is part of being a behavior analyst. So, I notice when entire categories of clinician support are missing from professional training conversations. Burnout prevention isn’t extra. Sustainability isn’t optional. Capacity isn’t a personal flaw. This gap is exactly why I started teaching clinicians how to build sustainable practice patterns for themselves. It’s time we start treating clinician wellbeing like it matters…because it does. #behavioranalyst #BCBAlife #bcba #bcbaburnout #AppliedBehaviorAnalysis

I used to write 'non-compliant' in my session notes without a second thought. Then I realized—that’s not a behavior problem, that’s a boundary. Whether you're a BCBA, QBA, SLP, or any professional in the neurodiversity space looking to shift to a neuroaffirmative lens, our new course is for you. Let’s change the narrative together.
