I Don't have a very positive and optimistic personality. My name is shorter then my be nickname; while is, Joyful (a high school friend gave me that name. So, yes... LOL, I'm very Joyful with a smile on my face). I was blessed to be a stay-at-home mother of three for 15 years, and then started getting back into the workforce. Family is the most important thing to me and love hanging out with family. I dance since the age of three years old, all the way up until I had my first two children, and I was an assistant dance instructor for about 10+ years. Back in 2009 to 2010 I worked as a water therapy assistant and water exercise instructor in Indianapolis, IN. I love to swim, go on walks/hikes, horseback riding, ride bikes, tennis, volleyball, travel, and many other things as well. I love to helping others, great multi-tasked, and have great problem solving skills. I am a very creative person and I am a visual artist as well (I'm able to draw anything I see)... so, I have a creative eye, love working on arts and crafts, puzzles, games, photography, interior decorating, and love working with pretty much all different kinds of mediums. I've been a HHA/CNA (with CPR training and Blood-borne Pathogens that I acquired during my HHA Diploma classes with A-1 Academy) for a few years now, and I have specialized with the mentally challenged and disabled as well. I also worked with AmeriCrops. right out of high school while attending college full time. I worked as a 1st and 2nd grader tutor at IPS schools, and assisted with aftercare programs, assisted with teen night every Friday night, was a Summer Counselor, and a student Dance Instructor to assist with hours for AmeriCrops. (It was Volunteer work with a one-year contract and salary position in Indianapolis, IN). I'm always a good friend, great helper with great integrity, dependable, and reliable.
