​Lydia Padilla originally joined the Blossom Park team as an intern for her graduate program at Arizona State University working as a learning coach.  Lydia's attention to detail allowed her to take on tasks as a Case Manager.  Upon completion of her Masters of Science in Applied Behavior Analysis, Lydia officially joined the Blossom Park family as a Case Manager, and later a Senior Case Manager.  Her love for kids and watching them grow does not stop here.  She also spends time coaching youth soccer teams in the valley and researching how the science of Precision Teaching/Applied Behavior Analysis can be used in the sports setting.  In her free time, she enjoys working out, coaching and playing soccer, drawing, and playing with her puppy.
