She also works as an interventionist providing Special Instruction and ABA therapy (Applied Behavior Analysis) for children receiving Early Intervention Services. She is a daughter of two proud Dominican parents who arrived in NYC in the 1980s and has raised three independent women who have made it their mission to help bring awareness and change to the many disparities our communities face not just in the United States but as well as in the Dominican Republic.
