About Candy

I really enjoy making a difference in the lives of others. I try to look at everything in a positive light while having fun and making the most out of every day. I most enjoy building a bond between the clients and me and doing activities that are of interest to them. I helped achieve a great dream of a client that uses a wheelchair, by dancing with her to the music that she loved.
