I am a very genuine person with excellent listening and communication skills. Strong ability to anticipate peoples needs and accommodate them. Raised two beautiful children while also taking care of my aging mother until she passed. I am a people person and feel deeply for the aged and those who are not able. I enjoy helping people whether it be to feel better, or preparing meals or giving them independence through mobility.
