This career suits me because I care and love helping my clients in any way possible. All that matters is they are happy and receiving my all. The things that helped me realize that this was a great career fit for me was seeing my family being so helpful to elders in my community. I was always taught to help and give back to my elders in any way possible. I enjoying seeing the joy they get from someone going out of there way to help them and showing them that there are still people out there willing to understand them and care for them. One of my greatest achievements would have to be finishing high school on time after dropping out my freshmen year, and being the only child out of my siblings to go to college and granduate.
