Buse previously completed her Bachelor of Arts (Honours) and M.Sc. at the University of Victoria. Buse\u2019s master\u2019s thesis involved adapting Dino Island to a typically developing preschool population to understand whether the intervention could be used with young preschoolers. Buse hopes to use Dino Island with preschoolers from lower socio-economic backgrounds as a preventative training tool in the future. She also has strong interests in working with individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders. <\/span><\/p>\n
