About Tina

I became a caregiver back in 2007 when I was a CNA. My certification has expired because two years I forgot to pay the recertification. But I become one because I love to take care of people no matter the age. I wanted to take care of my grandmother but everyone at that time said that I was too young in which I was. So I knew from here on out that I could take care of the ones who needed help the most. I like being a caregiver because you gives you the chance to see how life was in there time of living and getting to know them. I am proud to say that I have achieved the ability to take care of someone better then yesterday. I am 26 years old and I have been taking care of the elderly since I was 19 years of age. I am the baby girl out of my mother 4 children and I just recently got married in December 2013. I don't have any children and I am currently going back to school online at University of Phoenix to get my Bachelor's Degree in Human Services with a Concentration in Addictions.
