About Leonard

I have extensive experience working with elderly adults. In the 14 years I've worked as a care provider, the one gift that I receive the most is the constant gratitude of my service. Recognizing that each resident is an individual with unique needs and potentials is key to creating a good rapport. Learning about the resident helps me discover what motivates them. I'm comfortable working with other professionals as needed to assist each resident with their goals. I have a love for photography and art and I love to cook and try new recipes. Yes, a guy that likes to cook. Go figure! I have a reliable vehicle with full insurance and a clean DMV record and I'm available to work a flexible schedule. I look forward to the opportunity to provide excellent care. Thank you.
