Founded by Former ABA Business Owners

Dan Dube

Founder and CEO

Dan is a serial entrepreneur with over 35 years of experience in the publishing and healthcare industries. In 2005, he was co-founder and CEO of DocZone, the publishing industry's first cloud-based content management, language translation and automated multilingual publishing platform. DocZone had a successful exit in 2009 after being acquired by RSI Content Solutions, where Dan stayed on for 3 years as Executive Vice President.

In 2013, Dan co-founded Compass Innovative Behavior Strategies with his wife, Ally, and served as CEO. Within 7 years, Compass became the largest ABA provider in the state of New Hampshire, with 4 clinic locations and over 150 employees, serving hundreds of families in that time span. Compass is an award-winning company, gaining recognition from NH Business Magazine as the #1 Fastest Growing Family Owned Business in 2019 and the #1 Company to Watch for 2020. 

In July 2021, Compass merged with Patterns Behavioral Services to create a nationwide network of ABA therapy services for individuals of all ages with Autism and other developmental disabilities. Dan served in an executive role at Patterns as the Vice President of Business Development, responsible for marketing and strategic growth of Patterns locations around the county.
