About Roderick

I got laid off from the local Community College and the house I was living in got sold. A neighbor was trying to decide between moving to an assisted living home or remaining in his home of 50 plus years. I moved in and not only got a job but a great friend and a home for the next few years. He recently passed and now I'm looking for my next life adventure to unfold.

    My name is Tanesha Pleze I am a single mother of a 16 year old young man. I am currently a student at El Camino Compton Center studying for my Nursing degree. I became a caregiver because I love helping others. I love everything about the medical field, I am very compassionate in what I do. Something that I am proud of is continuing my education so I can fulfill my dream. Taking care of my son, going to school and working off and on doing what I love is something I am proud of. Not giving up no matter how hard the struggle gets, God said it best.
