I am a very easy going person. My personality is my best trait. My mother was confined to a wheelchair due to Muscular Dystrophy from the time I was 18 months old until I lost her in 2009. Taking care of her just led to me naturally becoming a caregiver. It's what I know.

I'm extremely passionate about my job. I have amazing patience, and empathy working with memory care, or special needs clients. I love working with elderly clients and treat everyone like I would my own family. I volunteered at a nursing home in school and fell in love with it. I knew then that this was the job I was meant to do. I love putting smiles on people's faces.faces home n
