About Linda

About me: I have a very upbeat, positive happy personality. When I work my main goal is always to please my employer or patient. I feel my job is to satisfy a patients needs and wants, which is what I always aim to do. I am very detailed orientated, when i do anything I strive to perfection, which I typically achieve. I care about helping people which brought me into the dental hygiene field, which I no longer do. I loved the work, the human interaction, conversation and educating my patients. Doing caregiving gives me an opportunity, once again, to do what I love. I get great enjoyment working with people, it fills me with joy if I can make a person happy and comfortable. About my education: my degree in dental hygiene included every core course a nurse has to take for their degree...the only difference is/was the clinical part (treating patients in a hospital setting) and specialty classes. We do our clinical in a dental setting and dental specialty classes.

I am punctual, very compassionate about what I do for people who have lost some independence from a life event. Compassion for the family involved to help lessen the burden. I like to tell stories that help the family get to know who I am and I love to hear stories from them as well. I have made Caregiving my Career and take it seriously to become highly regarded and recommended. I enjoy helping the patient and their families keep their lifestyles they have without interruption. I like seeing results so with that being said, I had achieved my series 6 & 63 license (which was a challenge for me) and was proud to present products that would get higher interest with low risk. I also did debt settlements and was happy to negotiate the lowest rate for my clients to settle. I work hard and with compassion whether your my customer, patient, friend or family member because I believe everyone needs help sometimes and I look past any obstacles getting it done.
