Kaitlin is the Lead Assistive Technology Specialist for K-12 schools at the ATLAS Project. She has been a practicing occupational therapist for six years and has worked with individuals across the lifespan in a variety of settings (inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, schools, and outpatient clinics). Kaitlin is passionate about improving accessibility and opportunities for independence by meeting people where they are. She is thrilled to be working on the ATLAS Project to tap into her knowledge and experiences as an occupational therapist while serving school-aged children across the state. Kaitlin’s other full-time gig is being a mother to the happiest and cutest baby that’s ever existed (but don’t worry, she isn’t biased at all!) She loves spending time with her husband, son, and two rescue pups. She loves baking, reading, and playing board games in her spare time.
The concept of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices began in the 1950s, but the first computer-based communication aids became available in the 1980s. Now, AAC apps can be downloaded directly to smartphones and tablets! Learn more:
