Meet Katy Rodriguez, Our Outstanding HR Coordinator:
“I graduated with bachelors in psychology and hoping to continue with my studies and will pursue a masters in social work.
I love working at BK because I am surrounded with people of the same passion to make a positive impact for families and advocate for children in the autism spectrum. As a HR Coordinator my favorite part about my job is being able to connect and interact with various peoples of different backgrounds. Also I love being able to be a support to not only providers but to my coworkers to create a positive work environment and being able to be a support system for others. My role allows me to be able to problem solve while maintaining compliance which is exciting for myself.
A fun fact about me is I love to paint and consider it a stress relieving activity.”

Meet Danika Lang, RBT:
“Nebraska Behavior Supports offers so much flexibility. As an RBT, I have the opportunity to build my own schedule and meet the needs of clients in more rural areas. This flexibility has allowed me to work part time while finishing my PhD in special education and will allow me to continue working as I further my education in pursuit of my BCBA credential. I believe one of the most important objectives in applied behavior analysis is the pursuit of social validity.
While the study of human behavior has immeasurable value in and of itself, it is also imperative that this knowledge is used to improve the human condition, especially for vulnerable populations in need of additional support. This includes individuals with special needs such as intellectual/developmental disabilities, emotional/behavioral disorders, or autism spectrum disorder, among others. For the past decade, I have worked in the field of special education as a private academic tutor, teaching assistant, special education teacher, and graduate research assistant. Over the course of my career, I have conducted educational research, taught undergraduate courses to preservice teachers, and have worked one-on-one with students with a variety of special needs in grades K-12. Although each of these roles was invaluable to my professional growth, none of them were quite the right fit. I was drawn to specific elements of each position, but, on their own, none of them completely satisfied my desire to use evidence-based instructional practices to improve the lives of individuals with special needs and their families. I didn’t find that level of professional fulfillment until I began working as an RBT.
For me, the best part of the job is getting to spend time with some incredible kids. There are so many days when I come home and think to myself, "I actually get paid to be present to individuals with special needs and provide the support necessary for them to simply live their best lives." I go where they go, do what they do, and try to provide them with the tools necessary for engaging in effective communication, interpersonal interactions, and completing activities of daily living with the highest possible level of independence.
In my free time, I love doing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I've been training at Lincoln Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Center for two and a half years now and have been involved in martial arts on and off for the past 20 years.”

Join thousands of happy families in giving your child the gift of ABA therapy and autism services.

Meet Audrey Koenigsknecht, BCBA:
"I enjoy working at NBS because they allow me to service individuals via telehealth, which allows families to get their children the support and ABA services that they may not have otherwise been able to access.
I also enjoy working with NBS because everyone is so friendly and helpful. There can be barriers when working remote, but NBS makes it very easy to communicate with everyone to keep everything running smoothly. It has been a very healthy and happy work environment to be a part of!
I stumbled upon this field my senior year of college when I had no idea what I was going to do with my psychology and child development degree. One of my professors told me about ABA therapy so I volunteered at my college's autism clinic and immediately fell in love with the field and knew this was what I was meant to do.
My favorite part of the job is seeing the children, families and therapists progress before our eyes. It is so fun, so rewarding and so special to be a part of changing our children and families lives forever!
A fun fact about me is that I was a BCaBA before I became a BCBA."
