About Karina

My personality traits that make me a great caregiver would be that I am empathetic, compassionate, and extremely patient. I was attracted to becoming a caregiver as I saw the need of companionship and time to which most family members couldn't afford to give their own time. I enjoy learning new things about each individual. New challenges are welcome head-on. Personal achievement I am most proud of would be learning that I was placed on this earth to be a Great Caregiver with over 20 years of personal experience.
