Andrew consistently brings professionalism, reliability, and a calm presence to every session. His ability to stay patient, focused, and supportive, no matter what the day brings, makes him an incredible asset to our team and a steady source of comfort for our clients.
Thank you, Andrew, for your dedication, your consistency, and the pride you take in your work. We are grateful for the impact you make each day at Expressions!
What do you love most about being an RBT?
What I love most is seeing all the progress that these kiddos make. There's something so incredible about watching a child truly find their voice, build fulfilling relationships, learn new skills, and grow into more independence. Additionally, when they graduate and move on to bigger things, it's so heartwarming when their parents send us updates. It's a reminder that what we do leaves a lasting, meaningful impact. Knowing I'm a part of that impact is one of the most rewarding parts.
What is one piece of advice you would give to new or future employees?
Don't be afraid to be SILLY! Our work can be intense, and sometimes the best way to connect with our clients is to let yourself have fun. Be goofy, make the kids laugh, make YOURSELF laugh, sing that ridiculous song, wear that funny hat. It's not unprofessional, it's human! Those moments of play can sometimes turn a tough day around for you and for the people you're supporting.
What is your favorite quote?
"We're all just walking each other home," - Ram Dass.
To me, this quote is a reminder that life isn't about having it all figured out. It's about being there for each other. As an RBT, I'm not here to fix anyone. I'm just walking alongside my clients, helping them feel safe, supported, and seen while we figure things out together.
Do you have any animals?
Too many! I have three cats and a dog. Gemma is my dog, and my three cats are Tiny Socks, Minnie, and Rosie. My cats definitely have my heart, especially Rosie who has a disability called cerebellar hypoplasia, AKA wobbly cat syndrome! She is the cutest little wobbly cat you've ever seen.
What are your hobbies?
I'm big on anything outdoors! Hiking, exploring, going to the park with my baby. I also love arts and crafts, especially jewelry making. And when I get some downtime on the weekends, I'm usually playing some sort of cozy video game.
What inspired you to join Expressions?
I wanted to be a part of something bigger than myself, and Expressions really gave me that feeling. The team seemed tight-knit and genuinely supportive, and every RBT and BCBA I met came across as truly passionate about the work and in this field for the right reasons. That kind of environment is inspiring and made me want to be a part of it.
Join us in thanking Andrew for all the incredible work he does!
