Over the past decade, Dr. Luallin has dedicated herself to working with individuals with ASD and their families.

We are excited to continue benefiting from her expertise and passion as she contributes to our mission of supporting individuals with autism and their families.

Thank you, Dr. Luallin, for your exceptional work and commitment to improving the lives of those we serve!

We are excited to shine a spotlight on Kari, a dedicated professional with a rich background in Rehabilitation Services, Psychology, and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). Kari’s journey began with her undergraduate studies at Southern Illinois University-Carbondale, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in Rehabilitation Services and Psychology in 2009. Her passion for behavior analysis led her to pursue a Master of Science degree in Applied Behavior Analysis in 2011, where she immersed herself in ABA principles, research, and therapeutic interventions.

Throughout her career, Kari has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to improving the quality of life for individuals through behavioral support. Her diverse experiences include conducting studies on twin interactions and behavioral patterns, researching preference assessments for elderly patients with dementia and Alzheimer’s, supporting rehabilitation for adolescents with traumatic brain injuries, evaluating executive functioning in neurotypical children, and providing therapy for individuals on the autism spectrum.

Becoming a Board Certified Behavior Analyst

Kari’s expertise in ABA became even more pronounced after she earned her Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) credential. She took her skills to a non-profit organization in Virginia, where she worked closely with public schools to enhance special education services for children on the autism spectrum. Her role involved assessing needs, implementing individualized education plans, and training educators using the Competent Learner Model (CLM). This model, rooted in ABA principles, played a crucial role in supporting children’s development and learning outcomes.

In her extensive career, Kari has also excelled in training and overseeing educational, professional, and clinical settings. Her ability to apply ABA principles to develop effective teaching strategies for diverse groups, including those with and without disabilities, highlights her versatility and leadership.

Since 2014, Kari has served as a Clinical Director, managing clinic operations to ensure the delivery of high-quality therapy services. Her leadership is marked by her dedication to fostering a positive work environment that motivates both staff and learners.

Autism Diagnostic Testing at Lighthouse Autism Center

In 2023, Kari embraced a new challenge as she transitioned into a diagnostics support role at Lighthouse Autism Center. Working alongside a licensed clinical psychologist, she is now involved in developing in-house autism evaluations. This role has allowed her to further expand her skills as a behavior analyst and engage directly with families seeking evaluation and treatment for their children. Additionally, Kari contributes to the organization’s training department, focusing on compassionate care, learner self-advocacy, and effective supervision.

Outside of her professional life, Kari enjoys a fulfilling family life with her husband, Scott, and their two young daughters. Together with their dog, Murphy, they embrace outdoor adventures and cherish cozy moments with their cat, Ridge, on rainy days. Kari’s hobbies include cooking, exploring the Indianapolis area, traveling, and tackling DIY home projects. She remains passionate about continuing her educational outreach and sharing her expertise in ABA.

Kari’s journey reflects her deep commitment to behavioral support and her ongoing dedication to advancing the field of ABA. We are thrilled to have her as part of our team and look forward to the continued positive impact she will make.

What made you decide to apply to Lighthouse?

I heard about Lighthouse through a family friend. I have worked with kids for the past 13 years and have always loved it. I felt like God was pushing me in this direction. I decided to go ahead and apply. It was one of the best decisions! 

What is your favorite part of working at Lighthouse Autism Center?

It’s so incredible to be able to watch the learners meet their goals and see them accomplish what might look like the impossible. I love hearing stories from parents about all the growth and success they are seeing at home. It’s amazing that I get to be a part of that! 

How would you describe your experience working for Lighthouse?

As soon as I walked into the Greenfield center I felt welcomed and immediately accepted into a family that has been formed here at LAC. I had no prior experience in ABA therapy before coming here. No matter what questions I had or help I needed everyone was so kind and patient. I am so thankful that God planted me here! 

Do you have a favorite memory from your time here?

I’ve had some pretty amazing moments here with the learners and staff. I think my favorite was shortly after I started. I was sitting at the little table with my learner. I looked over at him and he put both of his hands on each side of my face. It was the sweetest little moment! I knew from that moment that I could push through all the hard times because those sweet little moments are the best! 

What advice you would like to share for those interested in a career at Lighthouse Autism Center?

This work can be challenging at times, but every time a learner meets their goals or accomplishes even the tiniest of things, it’s the best reward!  To be a part of their story even if it’s just a short time is amazing! 

Ana’s  Lighthouse Autism Center Journey

Ana is a Senior Therapist and Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) Trainer at Lighthouse Autism Center – Kalamazoo, bringing her expertise since joining in February 2022. She holds a degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry from Western Michigan University. Originally from Costa Rica, Ana has lived in four countries before settling in Kalamazoo seven years ago. Outside of her work, Ana enjoys a variety of hobbies including watching TV shows, playing tennis, going on leisurely walks with her cat Lio, and cherishing moments with her friends and family. Her vibrant personality and diverse experiences enrich our team at Lighthouse Autism Center every day.

What made you decide to apply to Lighthouse?

I’ve always had a passion for education, working with children and helping others. After graduating from WMU, as I was looking for a job, I came across various postings. But LAC’s job posting caught my attention, it was light, fun and it just gave me a “this might be it” feeling. And I guess I was right, after having my interview with Avery Blackburn I just knew I was in the right place.

What is your favorite part of working at Lighthouse Autism Center?

My favorite part about working at Lighthouse is watching the learners achieve goals and overcome challenges, and alongside their technicians and clinical team putting their heart and soul into creating opportunities for the learners to accomplish this. Every single learner I’ve worked with has a piece of my heart; they’re the best part about working at Lighthouse. 

How would you describe your experience working for Lighthouse?

Lighthouse is a place of love and acceptance where everyone is welcomed. When I first started at Lighthouse, I thought not having any ABA knowledge or having English as my second language would’ve been barriers that wouldn’t let me succeed as much as I wanted to. But the Pod 3 team, especially my previous supervisor, Dani Boden, and fellow desk trainer Meg McCaw, gave me the confidence and tools to succeed and prosper. I’ve learned and grown so much over the years at Lighthouse. I’m eternally grateful for the clinical team I get to work with every day- Becca, Emilie, Avery, Niki, Clare, Katie, Mikaela, Grace, Michaela, and Lexie. They have all taught me valuable lessons that make me the desk trainer I am today. I’m so happy to have found a place were coming to work is a pleasure instead of an obligation, and I thank my coworkers for making our center such a fun place to work at. 

Do you have a favorite memory from your time here?

From all the amazing days I’ve had at Lighthouse it’s hard to choose just one favorite memory. Some memories that stand out for me are when one of our nonverbal learners said the word “light” while manding for a toy flashlight, all  the fun-Friday dance parties in the playroom, and definitely when one of our learners was having a hard time transitioning out of the building at pick up and my coworker Nate E and I played crazy frog and we did a dance party all the way until we got outside to his mom. 

What advice you would like to share for those interested in a career at Lighthouse Autism Center?

We are all a team with the same passion, helping our learners succeed in different ways. It can get challenging at times, but it is so rewarding at the same time. We are our learners’ second home- they are with us for 8 hours a day, every tiny effort to make this home a loving and safe one, makes a difference in their lives. If you come in every day with love, patience, and acceptance to share, there is no doubt you will shape our learners’ future for the better. 

Meg’s  Lighthouse Autism Center Journey

Meg is a Clinical Apprentice at Lighthouse Autism Center – Jenison and has been with Lighthouse Autism Center since October 2021. Meg started at Lighthouse Autism Center in Kalamazoo West as a senior/desk trainer and then moved to Jenison in August 2023.

In Meg’s free time, she is an avid reader and loves being with her friends and family. She has two adorable nephews who are her absolute favorites to spend her weekends with. 

What made you decide to apply to Lighthouse?

I originally applied to Lighthouse Autism Center as I had only heard good things and I knew I had a passion working with and for others. At Lighthouse, I knew I would be a part of a compassionate environment that fosters joy, growth, and greater choices for all involved. 

What is your favorite part of working at Lighthouse Autism Center?

The people at Lighthouse make it what it is. They consistently promote acceptance, kindness, and are so quick to celebrate every win for everyone. I have been fortunate to be surrounded by passionate, hardworking teams at both Kalamazoo West and Jenison. At Kalamazoo West, I got to work side-by-side with some of the best people and continue to have this privilege at Jenison. Additionally, both centers’ clinical teams have afforded me opportunities to continue learning, growing, and becoming my best self. I’ve tremendously enjoyed getting to work under Dani Boden at both centers and continue growing professionally and personally under her guidance. Every individual that I have been able to work alongside and each learner I have meet have been the best parts of LAC. 

How would you describe your experience working for Lighthouse?

My experience at Lighthouse has been empowering and has brought growth, celebrations, and challenges. It is a demanding job, but it is so rewarding and fulfilling. I feel fortunate that I get to come to work at LAC.

Do you have a favorite memory from your time here?

Throughout my time at LAC, I have collected so many favorite memories. Every gain my learners make that I get to celebrate, so much laughter and fun with coworkers, and getting to learn and work with Ana Nunez-Palmieri at Kalamazoo West. It’s hard to choose just one favorite moment, but one of my first learners graduation stands out and will remain special to me forever.

What advice you would like to share for those interested in a career at Lighthouse Autism Center?

My advice for anyone interested in starting a career at LAC is that if you have a passion for working with children to help promote greater choices and joy, no matter your past work experiences, to come with patience and a willingness to learn. Some days will be more challenging than others, but at the end of every day when you’ve put your best self forward, you’ve made a lasting difference to your learners and their families. 

Marie’s  Lighthouse Autism Center Journey

Marie, a dedicated Registered Behavior Technician, proudly serves at Lighthouse Autism Center – Elkhart South, bringing her unwavering commitment to excellence since joining the team in April 2023. Hailing from the vibrant southern suburbs of Illinois, her journey into the field of autism care began with a foundation laid at Bloom High School in Chicago Heights, where she graduated with distinction in 2020. With a deep-seated passion for making a difference in the lives of individuals with autism, Marie’s presence exemplifies the compassionate spirit and professionalism that defines Lighthouse Autism Center’s mission.

What made you decide to apply to Lighthouse?

When I applied for the position to be an RBT in 2023, I did it with a question mark over my head, but I went into it with an open mind and open heart. Although I had no knowledge about the job and didn’t know that there were opportunities like this, I took that leap of faith to step out of my comfort zone and try something new.

What is your favorite part of working at Lighthouse Autism Center?

My favorite part about working for Lighthouse is being able to work with these precious learners that walk into our center daily. I love that I can see them improve in areas they need help in and also being that person that can care for them as much as I can. 

How would you describe your experience working for Lighthouse?

My overall experience at Lighthouse has been an eye-opener. I say this because when I started working here, I lived by two slogans: “open mind and open heart” and “CAP.” CAP stands for Compassion, Acceptance, and Patience. In order to have an open mind and open heart, you have to be willing to give compassion to your learner and love them as if they were your own. Secondly, you have to be accepting of how they are and what comes with your learner. Lastly, you have to have patience with your learner; patience is the key to success. 

Do you have a favorite memory from your time here?

I 100% know there are memories being made daily because we are what will be remembered in the long run, and the memories we make with the kids are long-term as well. But to fully answer that question, my favorite memory has by far been every moment I spend with my learners. Seeing their growth makes me feel like I’ve accomplished something just as much as they have. 

What advice you would like to share for those interested in a career at Lighthouse Autism Center?

My advice to someone looking to be in the RBT field: just be yourself, be optimistic, keep your head held high, and if you start something, be sure to put your best foot forward every time. Being an RBT has by far been the best experience of my life, and it comes with lots of perks and learning experiences as well. 

Ian’s  Lighthouse Autism Center Journey

He started at TBS in 2019 in Greenfield, IN, which was acquired by Lighthouse in January 2020.

He loves to play Magic the Gathering and League of Legends. Ian has been married for 3 years and has a son, Connor who is 2 years old. You may see him on video call with Ian sometimes!

What made you decide to apply to Lighthouse?

I applied for the IT position at Lighthouse because I really wanted to participate at a higher level, but I also knew I didn’t want to pursue a BCBA license since I did not plan to go to school.

What is your favorite part of working at Lighthouse Autism Center?

One of my favorite things about Lighthouse Autism Center and the people in it, is the unified pursuit of excellence and quality of care for the learners. Working as an RBT was a tough job, and working in IT brings its share of challenges, but I can say with certainty that the MO is clear from top to bottom in each department and each center. Everyone wants to be the best they can be for the learners. I see it when I video chat PMs and RBT Trainers alike at a center. I can hear it in the background when staff and learners laugh and learn together. It’s the aspect of my job I cherish most. Each video call brings with it an ambience of center life that I left behind.

How would you describe your experience working for Lighthouse?

There are some really great people working for LAC that are looking for talent, and that extends beyond just skill in ABA. Opportunity will present itself, and when it does do not hesitate to put yourself out there.

Ashley’s Lighthouse Autism Center Journey

Ashley is a Lead Registered Behavior Technician at our Anderson center and has been with Lighthouse Autism Center since August of 2023. She is a step-mom to three awesome kids and has two Great Danes and a Sun Conure parrot. Ashley loves to read, draw and spend time doing things outside in the warm weather with the people that mean the most to her.

What made you decide to apply to Lighthouse?

When I became an RBT, there was no doubt in my mind that this was the career for me. Unfortunately, I needed to find a center that was closer to home. I had always heard good things about Lighthouse and although I had interviewed for other centers as well, Lighthouse just stood out to me the most.

What is your favorite part of working at Lighthouse Autism Center?

My favorite part of working for Lighthouse is definitely the culture. I love that so many people come together with the same goal in mind and that is to provide the best therapy for some of the most amazing kiddos.

How would you describe your experience working for Lighthouse?

My experience at Lighthouse has been even better than I imagined it to be. Being an RBT in general is such a rewarding career, but it really makes all the difference to work for a company that values you as a person as well as an employee. I’ve met some of the most amazing people at Lighthouse that I’ve created great friendships with and I’ll forever be thankful for that. 

Do you have a favorite memory from your time here?

There are so many great memories, it’s hard to choose just one. I love all of our holiday activities for learners and staff. Spirit weeks are always so much fun because I love seeing the learners faces when we all dress up. The best part will always be just seeing our learners hit their goals and being an essential part in helping them learn, grow and express themselves. 

What advice you would like to share for those interested in a career at Lighthouse Autism Center?

Just do it. It’s such an awesome career for anyone that wants to actually make a difference. There’s not one day that I dread going to work because I truly love what I do. 

Ruthie’s Lighthouse Autism Center Journey

Ruthie is a Registered Behavior Technician Trainer at our East Moline center and has been with Lighthouse Autism Center since July of 2023. She is a mom to a seven-year-old boy and her favorite hobbies are writing poetry and painting. Ruthie also enjoys trying new things and meeting new people. She is a huge movie buff and her idea of a perfect evening is sitting on the couch watching a good movie and eating popcorn.

What made you decide to apply to Lighthouse?

I made a choice years ago to work in different fields- never doing the same thing twice. I was determined to find my purpose. I worked jobs as complicated as the government and as simple as a warehouse. There was one job I could never get away from- children. Everywhere I went I found myself teaching or molding a child from different walks of life. I applied at Lighthouse not knowing what was in store. I saw the website and was sold almost immediately. I knew I could be a teacher but never knew about being a Registered Behavior Technician. I live to try things I’ve never tried, so I applied, and now my life is filled with so much more purpose. 

What is your favorite part of working at Lighthouse Autism Center?

My favorite part of working for Lighthouse is its solid foundation, which is very important for autism and the people working with individuals on the spectrum. Change is good, but too much change creates inconsistency. I love the energy as well. Everyone here is happy to be here and this is something I rarely saw throughout my many career choices.

How would you describe your experience working for Lighthouse?

My experience here at Lighthouse has reached new levels mentally for me. I usually go into the workforce and grasp everything at the beginning and when I have reached the ceiling of elevation, I quit and move on to another career. Here at Lighthouse, there is no limit. There are more opportunities and space to grow, if you are willing to work for it. I’m constantly challenged, creatively, mentally, and physically. I love the fact that I can be my authentic self and use my creativity to help each learner reach their goal.

Do you have a favorite memory from your time here?

My favorite memory from my time at Lighthouse happened within my first month of joining the team. When I was in training, I was so worried that I was not grasping all the terms and understanding how to run the programs. Every step of the way someone on the team was yelling “Go Ruthie” or “You got this” and it gave me the push and encouragement I needed to succeed. Now I can do the same for other trainees. 

What advice you would like to share for those interested in a career at Lighthouse Autism Center?

While I do not have a college degree and I have never worked with children diagnosed with autism before Lighthouse, within 6 months I have advanced to an RBT Trainer through hard work and training from my fellow team members. Something that has not been easy as a single parent. If you are afraid because you believe you are not enough or you can’t help a child with autism, then you are the right person for the job because you have humility. All of this to say: “The sky is not the limit; it is only a point of reference.” —-Pastor Frank R. Livingston.

Gracie’s Lighthouse Autism Center Journey

Gracie is a Registered Behavior Technician at our Daleville center and has been with Lighthouse Autism Center since June of 2023. She graduated from Ball State University with a bachelor’s degree in childhood education. Gracie has one dog and two cats and enjoys spending time with her family, traveling with her husband and working out.

What made you decide to apply to Lighthouse?

While student teaching, I realized that I enjoyed working one-on-one with children rather than teaching a full class. When I saw the position at LAC, I was very excited to learn more!

What is your favorite part of working at Lighthouse Autism Center?

My favorite part of working for Lighthouse is watching the progress that all the learners in the center have made since I have began working! Watching them grow and learn new things everyday is so great. I am so thankful for all the wonderful staff at LAC as well. They are all so supportive and caring.

How would you describe your experience working for Lighthouse?

My experience working at Lighthouse has been nothing short of amazing. It is such a rewarding job that I am thankful to be a part of.

Do you have a favorite memory from your time here?

One of my favorite memories from my time at Lighthouse is when we had our fall festival. This was my first event at the center for all of the learners and their families. It was so great to be able to watch the families be able to enjoy a fun evening full of fall activities in a safe and welcoming environment! Not to mention seeing all of the children so happy to be there with their families! 

What advice you would like to share for those interested in a career at Lighthouse Autism Center?

Working at Lighthouse Autism Center is such a fun and rewarding job. There may be hard days here and there, but I believe it is best to stay positive and know that you are making the biggest difference in these children’s lives. 

Amanda’s Lighthouse Autism Center Journey

Amanda is a Registered Behavior Therapist Training Coordinator at our Elkhart North center and has been with Lighthouse Autism Center since February of 2021. She graduated from Goshen College with a bachelor’s degree in physical education.

What made you decide to apply to Lighthouse?

After graduating during the middle of the school year, I couldn’t find the right fit anywhere. That is when I started looking into other jobs outside of what I went to school for. I had worked with students on the spectrum in gym class throughout college. However, I had no idea what ABA Therapy was or what it looked like. It was something new and I was still wanting to learn more. I knew I wanted to keep working with kids and being able to be 1 on 1 with the kiddos is what really caught my eye.

What is your favorite part of working at Lighthouse Autism Center?

The environment! Everyone is welcoming, energetic, creative, and ready to teach little minds. The relationships! Not only the relationships and the rapport you build with the kiddos you are working with from day to day and their family, but the relationships you get to create with your co-workers. You work side by side with everyone all day and as we all may know, this job comes with some tough days. Having the people you work with know what you are experiencing allows for you to have someone to talk to and feel comfortable and supported. The Progress! This is number 1 in my book. You form a connection with your kiddos, learn them well, cheer them on and see them grow each day. A lot of this growth and progress we see is done by weaving in natural learning opportunities through play. Not a bad way to “work” in my eyes.

How would you describe your experience working for Lighthouse?

Rewarding, supportive, emotional in the best way. 

Do you have a favorite memory from your time here?

While being at Lighthouse, my favorite memories are all the graduations I have been able to attend. Being with the kiddos from the first day to their last is an emotional ride, but I wouldn’t change any of it. The growth we see with the kids, and then to continue to remain in contact with families to see their success after Lighthouse will always be something I cherish. 

What advice you would like to share for those interested in a career at Lighthouse Autism Center?

Take the leap! Come in with an open mind and ready to learn! It is such a rewarding career!
