I'm a true caregiver at heart. Whether taking care of my own loved ones to caring for others. I love making a big impact on their lives. Nursing has always been something that interested me. I became a CNA at age 18 and worked in a nursing home for 2 years. I have over 10 years of experience in working with the elderly in various settings. I'm most proud of the acknowledgement from patient families who have seen first hand the care I've given their loved ones.
