Catherine Cordero-Carter, Early Intervention Evaluator

“I used to work as Ohio Early Intervention Service Coordinator in Stark County for 5 years before I came to Summit DD as an Ohio Early Intervention Evaluator. I want to continue to assist and support families as I did in my previous position. Ohio Early Intervention is near and dear to my heart since my own daughter went through the program. In my personal time, I like to ride my bike throughout North Canton as well as play video games on my computer and Xbox. With my family, we enjoy being outside as much as possible. We will visit parks and the local festivals in town.” – Catherine Cordero-Carter, Early Intervention Evaluator

Danielle Lawrentz, SSA

“Before accepting a position at Summit DD, I worked with students in grades K-3 as an intervention specialist in the Marlington Local School District in Stark County. I was there from August 2013 – July 2022 then took some time off to obtain a Master’s Degree. I look forward to working with individuals with disabilities and their families again and making a difference in their lives. I enjoy spending time with my husband and three daughters and supporting them in their extracurricular activities (softball, basketball, band, and theater). I also enjoy vacationing, reading, shopping, and even just enjoying a nice relaxing night at home.” – Danielle Lawrentz, SSA

Crystal Stone, SSA

“I am excited to be returning to the Summit DD family. I have 4 years experience of being an SSA serving individuals in Summit and Portage Counties. Previous to that I worked in a local district in Special Education for 6 years. Working at Summit DD, I am looking forward to helping individuals and their family members achieve their goals and getting to be a part of that process. In my free time, I spend time with my husband, and two children going camping and enjoying nature. During the fall season, I enjoy and spend a lot of time under Friday Night Lights watching our favorite football player and supporting the Marching Band.” – Crystal Stone, SSA
