About Jess

I am a baccalaureate prepared RN with 7 years of experience with a passion for preventive care. My dream is to ride my bicycle around my neighborhood and visit seniors in their homes to provide excellent, compassionate nursing care, to help keep people out of the hospital, to allow for "aging in place." I believe in the Law of Attraction and the power of positivity. I have a great sense of humor. I am an accomplished violinist. My favorite quote and personal mantra comes from Louise Hay: "I am a joyful breeze entering a room."

Hello! I've been a caregiver for the past 13 years. I originally trained as a LVN, graduated and found myself enjoying the more one-on-one care and flexibility I get with caregiving. I like getting to know those I take care of. I'm a hard working, honest, easily adaptable to your preference and routine, positive and motivated individual. I'm more than comfortable with pets, able to assist in all daily living activities. Clean drivers record, car and I'm fully vaccinated, boosted and ready to see you! Please reach out if you have any questions for me. Thank you!
