About Vanessa

Hello! I have over 16 years of elder care/ healthcare experience. I worked for a reputable senior living company and during my tenure there, I wore many hats including but not limited to: Dining Room shift supervisor, Receptionist, Administrative Assistant, Sales Assistant, Activity Assistant to Programming Director. I also worked for a home care agency as Operations Manager and now, I'm working with at risk families and children. I obtained a Bachelor's degree at RIC, I'm a double major in Justice Studies/Sociology. I miss working with the elderly which is the reason why I'm hoping to find someone through here that I can provide services to and/or companionship. I am not CNA nor HHA certified but I do have knowledge and have obtained skills through my former employers that I'm ready to put to use again.
