I have lived in the Knoxville area since 1994. I started out as a K-8 teacher, teaching mainly the little guys. (Kindergarten and 1st grade) After the birth of each of my children I stayed home with them. In 2012 I decided to try something new, making the decision to become the Healthy Lifestyles Director for an Assisted Living. The residents lit up my life. As my grandmother became ill with Alzheimers I wanted to give her the love, compassion, and patience that she had given me my entire life. It was truly special and precious to be there for her. Having her at home was a blessing. However, it was apparent that help was needed at times, as daily tasks needed to be maintained for the rest of the family too. Finding the right agency or person to trust to come into our home was a difficult decision to make, after all this is your family member and home!! After her passing, I decided to become a nurse so I could help others who had a loved one at home in need of assistance. I am currently certified as a CNA, BLS certified, and have started my junior term classes in nursing school. My personality is lighthearted, upbeat, and patient. Being punctual, dedicated, and trustworthy is something I pride myself on. If you are looking for a skilled caregiver who whole heartedly enjoys helping others, please contact me.
