Since I can remember I have always cared for others and took care of those around me. By age 13 I was living and caring for my Type One Diabetic Granny. She was a retired RN, my mom was a RN, and my Aunt is a RN. It was my goal to follow in the same footsteps as the woman in my life. Unfortunately I never got my RN degree and started my family instead. However, I graduated High school a certified CNA and HHA after attending Francis Tuttle Vo-tech my Junior and Senior year of High School. I am a very energetic and easy to get along with person. My mother always said, "I never met a stranger." I am a 6 ft tall female so naturally I was expected to play basketball. I attended basketball camp one year because all my friends were not cause I cared about playing. I came home with every girls phone numbers from the camp and a plaque for " Miss Congeniality." They specially had made for me because I had no interest in the game but they wanted to recognize me because they had never seen a girl that absolutely got along with every girl and and staff member there before. I get a sense of enjoyment from caring for those who cannot care for themselves and was raised to respect others around me, especially those older and wiser than me no matter what.
