About Briana

I am very passionate about helping others and have worked in various positions providing care for the disabled, elderly, and children for over 6 years. I have also been a caregiver for 3 years and going to school for my nursing degree. All of these aspects have molded me into a well-rounded, hardworking individual. Over the years I have learned how to work in various environments, with people from various backgrounds, how to empathize with others, communicate effectively, and manage my time efficiently. I love working with the elderly and helping them stay as independent as possible, as well as being that listening ear and shoulder when needed.
