About Nikita Kopula

My favorite thing about working at Super S.T.A.R.S Child Research & Development Center is the supportive environment and the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with each child. I love watching the kids grow more confident every day.

The best part of therapy for me is getting to know each child’s personality and finding fun, creative ways to help them learn and succeed through Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. Seeing a child accomplish something they’ve been working so hard on is the best thing about the job!

I chose this profession because I’ve always loved working with children and making a positive impact in their lives. As a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) and an undergraduate Biomedical Engineering student at Georgia Institute of Technology, I’m passionate about helping children reach their full potential while supporting families every step of the way.

In the future, I hope to attend medical school and combine medicine with technology to improve healthcare and continue advocating for children through compassionate, innovative care.

A fun fact about me is I love traveling, trying new restaurants and exploring new places!
