From Our Founder
Motivity was founded to help bring evidence-based behavioral interventions from the research lab to the community. As an affiliate researcher at the University of Washington Autism Center (UWAC), I was working closely with some of the world’s leading autism intervention researchers. The ideas behind Motivity were shaped as I participated in ABA sessions and saw firsthand the limitations of existing software approaches. In 2013, I started focusing on Motivity full time and since then we have assembled an outstanding team, and we are excited about the opportunity to have a transformational impact in this important field.
