I am currently a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). I have my Bachelors degree in Community and Human Services from Empire State College. I have 4 years experience with seniors with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. I was also the sole live in caregiver for 2 years to my mother whom has a stroke and needed help from toileting, bathing, relearning to talk, read, and walking. I have experience working with fostered youth as well as disabled children with an array of symptoms. I enjoy this work to the fullest and plan on furthering my education in Febuary by pursuing a career as an LPN.
