Michael Van Atta, RBT

Hi, I am Michael, and I am passionate about ABA and love being an RBT. I was born and raised in Billings, Montana. I attended the University of Montana and graduated in 2023 with a degree in Psychology with a minor in Sports Psychology. I enjoy watching and playing sports. My parents and I have been attending Griz football games since 2009, which made me fall in love with Missoula and the University. I am planning on pursuing a Masters of Sports Psychology in the near future. I also love hanging out with my friends and family, playing board games, and watching movies. I have worked with kids with special needs when I was around middle school and high school being a teacher’s assistant, or TA, and helping coach for the Special Olympics. Since helping out being a TA, I found the love of working with kids. I have been an RBT since 2023. I have great experiences being an RBT, and hope to continue to make many more. I am an RBT during the school year, and I am an assistant director for a kids summer camp through the University. I hope to continue working with kids and younger adults in the future and watch and grow with them.
