Hi there, its Maura!
"Hi there, its Maura!" This a is a common greeting you'll hear once we start working together. My name Maura Wong Cooper, I am the founder of Moving with Confidence, based in Sonoma County, California. With nearly two decades of experience in supporting individuals with disabilities, I have honed my expertise over the last ten years as a Certified Orientation and Mobility Specialist (COMS), focusing on those with sight loss. My commitment to innovation in the field led me to earn a graduate certificate in Assistive Technology from the University of Massachusetts, Boston, and I have been successfully instructing in this area since 2023. Additionally, my experience extends to working with neurodivergent, medically fragile, and intellectually disabled populations. In my personal life, I enjoy cooking for family and friends, practicing yoga, and roller skating with my children.
