I become a caregiver because I had seen my mother work in a senior living facility and I knew I wanted to do the same thing so I went to work with her as a young kid and got to play games and help feed residents and so once I grew older and graduated high school I decided to get into the healthcare field and so I got a job as a DSP with those with disabilities and I absolutely loved it. I continued working as a DSP and I want to further my career in the healthcare field so I got enrolled in college and now I'm going to be getting my associates degree in healthcare. I love working with patients and being a good role model and just giving clients a happy life. I love seeing people happy and I love working for the community it brings joy to my life.
