James Macon, M.Ed., BCBA, received his undergraduate degree in 2008 from Western Michigan University and his Masters degree from the University of Cincinnati. His career has included work throughout many different applications of behavior analysis, including early intensive behavioral intervention, residential services, treatment of severe problem behavior, and consultation in both schools and hospitals. His primary focus of work is using Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) within human service agencies to improve clinical outcomes . He currently works as a Executive Clinical Director for a large Mid-Western behavioral health agency.
Very educational, and to think we almost did not attain the wisdom of ABA therapy. Gives us so much more hope for treating future generations.
