Alexis Knight
Founder, CEO
Board Certified Behavior Analyst
Alexis is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst with an extensive history of working with youth and adults with complex and high-level behaviors. After moving from Vermont to Colorado she began working with adults who have taught her that there is no such thing as being an expert. She enjoys supporting other professionals to develop their skillsets as well as taking every day as a new learning opportunity.
When Alexis isn’t working, you likely won’t find her in one place. She enjoys trail running long distances and traveling around Colorado and surrounding states to compete in Pack Burro Racing, which is trail running alongside your donkey companion. If her career hasn’t taught her enough about never being in control, her donkeys will solidify that concept.
