About Lisa

Hi Families! I chose to become a caregiver because I cared for my mother through her Alzheimer's. As I went through this process, it became clear to me and others in my life that this was a calling for me. I love looking after people, caring for their needs, making them laugh, and helping them find joy in the daily things they do. Sometimes they simply need another person there, so they are not alone. Other times, they need stimulating conversation and activities to keep them active and engaged. My job is to find out what they need and do my best to provide it. I am a mother of 7 children. I homeschooled most of them through high school. I love to be active, hiking, dancing, puttering around my house and driving through beautiful Colorado. I am writing a book, and hope to publish soon.

    I am hard working, patient and compassionate. I am able to handle any situation that comes my way, while keeping my composure. I was attracted to this field of work because I believe in making the best possible use of what you have. Being patient and "passive" is not always viewed as a positive thing, but if I can leverage my personality traits to build professional relationships that are mutually beneficial, I believe that is a truly rewarding experience. I am a natural problem solver and that's what makes this job enjoyable for me. I like the fact that every day is different and brings new challenges that translate into learning experiences. I aim to learn as much as possible, at all times, regardless of circumstance. I am proud of the fact that I am able to remain positive and take something away from each experience I have in life.
