About Karen

I am a caring outgoing person I love to give hugs. I like to help people I like to talk and find out about the other person and hear their stories. I got into being a caregiver for my Dads honor I saw that there are people that do their work because it's their job, but I want to be the one that hopefully can make a difference for someone if they are having a bad day and I can change that and hopefully put a smile on their face then that makes me happy and means I am doing my job and that's what I enjoy.
