I became a caregiver because I love helping others that need help. I have helped others in different ways throughout the years, mission trips, feeding the homeless and volunteer work. It is a joy to be able to give to others that need it and to be able to be a companion for them. A personal achievement that I am proud of is finally being able to go to school and get my Medical Assisting Degree. I have waited a long time for this due to the death of my husband 18 years ago. I had to raise 3 small children and put my career on hold. I finished my degree in Medical Assisting and went on to earn my AA Degree as well. I am a dedicated, reliable and responsible worker. It is my joy to help the less fortunate and give them what they cannot get on their own.
