Marquice Peyton – BCBA

Marquice earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology at IUPUI.

While at IUPUI, she started her first job at a day center where she provided direct services and respite. It was respite that first gave her the unique opportunity to see how much help families need at home. This pushed her to apply to her first ABA job where she gained her RBT certification. Marquice grew to love home-based ABA and was hungry to grow and learn as much as she could, which led her to apply to Ball State University, where she obtained a master’s degree in applied behavior analysis in 2020.

Marquice’s favorite part of providing ABA therapy, besides pairing with the clients, is working with caregivers on de-escalation strategies during problem behavior. Marquice loves ABA because it allows her to work with caregivers as problems arise, and believes there is value in working with a child in their natural environment at their individual pace.

Marquice’s personal interests currently involve her dog Keeva, her nephews, and planning a future with her fiancé.

She enjoys spending time with her brother, who is two years younger than her and is diagnosed with Autism. They often talk about life, their childhood, and now parenthood for him.

Adagio has been in the field of ABA for 5 years! Adagio’s experience as a BCBA has primarily revolved around early learners. Compassionate care with all kiddos and parents is what Adagio focuses on the most. One of Adagios’s favorite parts of ABA is trying to read as much of the scientific literature as possible. Adagio is always eager to learn new things in ABA.
