About Wendy

I am a very outgoing, talkative person. I love hearing stories that older generations tell, they are the best stories!! I lost all of my grandparents, and I am new to Texas from Pittsburgh, PA so I could use company myself. I think about my own grandparents getting older and helping them with things that they could no longer do and how good it felt to be able to help them. I don't ever want someone to feel embarrassed or upset about something they can't control, and I seem to be able to handle those situations quite well. I am not a very big person, so sometimes transferring someone may be a little tough if the person is large, but I have helped rather big people get from a bed to a wheelchair, if they can help a little. I will try my hardest to do it, but I can do everything else and the companionship just comes with it. It puts a smile on my face if I can make someones day, but they make my day just as much. I am very proud that I was able to help take care of my Gram in her final days and just be able to talk to her. I think this would be a great job for me, as I genuinely care about people and I am compassionate. I would love to meet anyone and talk with them more. Thank you for reading about me. Wendy

My job is to clean the roses and package them, and to make bouquets that get shipped out to different stores. Super Target being one of the main customers. I enjoy it, but I work by myself and quickly, and I am much more of a social person.
