I enjoy helping others and get great satisfaction out of being able to make a difference in people's lives. Working with mental handicap individuals right out of high school helped me see I was making a difference in their lives and I saw I was giving them the type of care they were lacking from others. I do not look at home care as just a job, but a relationship between individuals who you can build a bond with. I have not done home care in a long time and miss the interpersonal relationships I am able to have as a care giver. I am a 1st generation college graduate which is an achievement I am very proud of and has allowed me to take on a different occupation and be successful, but I miss my home care routes and want to do what I can to help others so I am looking at giving additional time for individuals in need.

I have always been a very caring person but learned how much I enjoyed taking care of others after my father suffered from a stroke. Since then I have worked for years with people with disabilities. I enjoy working one on one with people and helping them accomplish tasks that they have worked hard at. I am proud to say that I have become a manager at my current job.
