My personality and expertise on being a care giver comes naturally since I was young. I'm currently working on my second degree as a Medical Office Assistant. I have been helping as a home aide since I was young and continued on throughout my adulthood. I learned it from my grandmother who was a care giver for over 30 years and she taught, showed, and allowed my twin sister and I to assist her in her daily activities as a care giver at a local nursing home and as a private care giver. I really enjoy being a care giver because I love to help people who are in need of my services and to help them to still feel independent and useful to others as well as themselves while giving them companionship. A personal achievement that I'm proud of is getting my degree in Criminal Justice while working on another one in Healthcare .
