I've always loved having conversations with elderly people and love keeping them company. I love to talk, but I'm also a great listener. I love hearing about people's lives, how they grew up and how they've lived. My mom used to be a caregiver and I've seen how much she loved it, for the several years she did it, so I really would love to have a job I would enjoy and could learn from. I'm extremely proud of when I was given the Outstanding Visual And Performing Arts (VAPA) Student Award in my senior year of high school. I was very involved and passionate in band, art, theatre and ceramics.
