At sixteen, Amanda discovered her passion for working with children with disabilities, sparking her desire to help them achieve their full potential. She earned a degree in Special Education from the University of Georgia in 2004, focusing on Autism Spectrum and Behavioral Disorders. Subsequently, she obtained a Master’s Degree in Moderate Disabilities from Cambridge College in 2006. Amanda’s commitment to understanding neurology led her to complete over 150 hours of classes at the F. R. Carrick Institute of Ergonomics and pursue a PhD in Neuro-Psychology.
In 2007, Amanda’s career took a pivotal turn when she joined the Brain Balance Achievement Center, inspired by the remarkable transformations she witnessed among her students. She then developed a specialized Brain Balance program for teenagers at a therapeutic residential boarding school in 2012, focusing on adopted children and those who experienced trauma. Here, she delved into the connection between brain development and empathy.
Over the past decade, Amanda has collaborated with therapists, educators, and families in interdisciplinary settings, enriching her understanding of neurological interventions. Since 2015, she has served as the CEO of Brain Balance in Florida, Georgia, and Kentucky, while maintaining a small caseload to remain directly involved in her field. Amanda’s expertise has led her to become a national speaker, sharing insights on brain function, learning, attachment, and social-emotional development at various conferences.
