I'm a single Mom of two amazing boys. Ive been a caregiver most of my life. I helped raise my younger siblings as an adolescent and teenager and helped care for my Dad during and up to the end of his two year long battle with cancer. I love helping people. I'm a personal care attendant for a local home health agency where I live now but all kinds of caregiving experience. I taught Pre-K through a Texas school ready facility on and off for several years and I spent brief period of time working at the local campus for the state hospital. I'm an Army girl. I enlisted in Army at 22 and spent the best summer of.jy life at basic training at Ft. Leonard Wood Missouri. My Dad was a Marine as well so I have a special place in my heart for veterans and their families. The other half of my heart is for special needs individuals and their families. Both of my children have intellectual disabilities and I know first hand the struggles that come with that type of disability. I love to cook (I can't bake a cake to save my life though). I love animals. I have 4 dogs. ,(All of them large breed dogs). I also really enjoy gardening and reading books. I'm kind of a nerd . I'm currently working on getting certified to be a licensed behavior tech which would allow me to work at an ABA facility helping children with special needs and their families.
