Keith graduated from Lycoming College having I started my pursuit of higher education at Lycoming College in the Fall of 2001. I finished my undergraduate program in the Spring of 2005 with a Major in Psychology and Criminal Justice and a Minor in Sociology. After 8 years of personal and professional growth, I choose to pursue my Master’s Degree with Saint Joseph’s University. I graduated in the Spring of 2015 with a Master’s Degree in Criminal Justice: Behavior Analyst Concentration. I pursued this Master’s in part at the recommendation from Quality Progressions Management and for my own personal growth.

I started my career in the Human Services field in March of 2006 working as a Therapeutic Support Staff (TSS) with The RedCo Group. As a TSS, I learned to work as a part of a team and independently. I gained early experience in providing individualized therapy to children with Autism and other Mental Health diagnoses. I was responsible for writing clinical progress notes and meeting treatment objectives.

In March of 2007, I was hired by Supportive Concepts for Families Inc., as a Site Supervisor for a Community Home in the Lehigh Valley. This was the same home for one of the children I was assigned as a TSS through The RedCo Group. As a Site Supervisor, this was my first experience working within the Intellectual Disabilities Program. I was responsible for ensuring the health, safety, and welfare of those living within the Community Home I managed. I had to adhere to licensing regulations and learn to train those who worked in the Community Home. In the fall of 2007, I was promoted by Supportive Concepts for Families Inc. to a Program Coordinator position. As a Program Coordinator, I was responsible for supervising the Site Supervisors of seven Community Homes in both Reading and the Lehigh Valley. In this position, I represented Supportive Concepts for Families Inc. and worked with the individuals we were supporting and their Supports Coordinators to create a community based and least restrictive residential program.

After working for about two and a half years in residential services, I felt I was ready for a new challenge. I was hired by Quality Progressions in August of 2009 as a Supports Coordinator. I spent the next two years learning the intricacies of Supports Coordination. I created a great bond with many of the individuals I supported and their families. I feel like I grew in this position because my previous experiences as a TSS and residential provider. As a Supports Coordinator, I facilitated team meetings and brought whole teams together to help a person achieve their goal of independence.
