I became a CNA, because I am a natural caregiver and love helping people. I'm going to school to obtain my LPN, in the meantime I have been employed as a CNA since 2014. Making people smile and allowing them to have someone to talk to, being their companion. If I can put a smile on someone's face every day and work hard doing it, then I'm doing a good job. I made the decision to change my career and I am glad to be able to be a student while working so I can help my husband provide for our baby. I want the best for her and am a firm believer of leading by example.
