Parker began in pediatric services during his studies at Emory University, completing internships at the pediatric feeding disorders clinic at the Marcus Autism Center, as well as assisting in diagnostic research conducted in the Marcus social neuroscience lab. Upon completing his undergraduate studies, Parker began working as a registered behavior technician in a variety of settings, including clinics, homes, and community settings with children ages 2 – 16. Driven by his love for the science of ABA and passion for seeing growth and progress with his clients, Parker returned to school to receive his Masters in Applied Behavior Analysis in greater pursuit of becoming a BCBA. Since becoming a BCBA, Parker has loved creating individualized treatment approaches for those he serves, developing curricula, and being silly with his clients. 

Before joining the team at ABA to Z, Parker was the clinical manager of outpatient autism services at View Point Health in Lawrenceville, Ga. In his personal life, he enjoys writing music, interior design, and playing with his cats. His favorite TV shows are Avatar: The Last Airbender, Avatar: Legend of Korma, Attack on Titan, and Steven Universe.
