Reuven founded Aviation ABA to help children with autism and their families feel truly supported, understood, and cared for. To him, great ABA is about more than therapy, it’s about connection, trust, and building strong relationships with the whole family.

His journey began as a teen, shadowing a student with severe behavioral needs and volunteering at a nonprofit for kids with behavior challenges. That early spark grew into a lasting commitment.

Before launching Aviation ABA, Reuven helped grow other ABA organizations by supporting both clinical and administrative teams, drawing on his background in recruiting and business operations. For the past three years, he’s been leading his own practice, focused on care, consistency, and building a culture where people feel appreciated like family.

As a dad, Reuven brings empathy and real-world understanding to every decision. He’s passionate about people and creating a space where both families and team members feel seen and valued.
