Who is Behind SSkEd?

Mamta T. Prajapati, BSc., Supervised Behaviour Interventionist

The Founder

Mamta was born in Ottawa and moved to Toronto to complete her undergraduate degree in 2010. While living away from her family, Mamta became a very independent woman determined to pursue her dreams. Growing up, Mamta always wanted to be a teacher and to be able to help children. During her third year of university, she started volunteering with vulnerable populations. Naturally, this sparked a joy in her heart and she knew that she had found her calling. Through this opportunity, she learned she had the natural ability and skill set to be creative through teaching. Mamta’s passion for advocating for individuals with disabilities grew and continues to grow each day. Mamta is a very creative individual who enjoys problem solving, singing, dancing and creating art. Her open mindedness and collaborative nature shine in her work, where she is able to incorporate different approaches and work harmoniously with others. Mamta believes that we should constantly be growing, life is about learning all the lessons, and we are the students of life.
