Meet Juliana
Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA)
As Juliana pursued her undergrad at UC San Diego in Human Development, her interest to work with children grew when she started working as a teacher assistant at the Early Childhood Center at UC San Diego and she worked with a variety of kiddos from toddler to preschool. Juliana loved working with kiddos that had IEPs, as she was able to connect with them on a different level. Thus, still being an undergrad she was able to pursue a teaching career for almost 2 years, and she worked as a preschool and kindergarten teacher at Solana beach in San Diego County. Juliana was fortunate enough to take a course work during her undergrad that was research based, where she was able to observe teachers, BCBA’s, SLPS, OTs, social workers at Rady’s Children Autism Discovery Institute, and that is when she truly fell in love with the field of ABA. As Covid occurred and schools shut down, she decided it was time to join the field of ABA. Juliana started her ABA journey in 2020 at the same time her young cousins were diagnosed with autism and it gave a reason to pursue the field further. Juliana applied to the program of Masters of Science in ABA through National University. She was able to learn through her field work hours that she truly enjoyed the generalization and naturalistic teaching method. As Juliana passed the exam in 2024 her goal is to keep implementing these methods with the kiddos she works with. Fun Fact: Juliana loves spending time with her dogs, loves cooking, and you will find her at pilates classes after work.
