She has since established a career in autism and related developmental disabilities education and advocacy work for parents and professionals as well as college students. She has worked with state and federal legislators to help advocate for policy and law to benefit children, teens, and young adults with developmental disabilities and their families. She currently serves on the board of directors for the Monroe County Autism Foundation, which works to fund supports and services to children, teens, and adults diagnosed with autism living in the Monroe County, Indiana area who could not otherwise afford them.
