About Marcella

I decided to attend CNA school after taking care of my sick Mom and other family members. I was told by my family and friends that taking care of people was my calling. I enjoy meeting new clients and helping them with their special needs. I enjoy hearing all their stories and when they share all their pictures with me. My personal achievement would be graduating CNA school at a late time in my life and continuing nursing education. I enjoy the outdoors, cooking and baking.
