I knew from a young age I wanted to take care of people in one fashion or another. Almost 20 years ago I started taking care of elderly folks and I fell in love with it. I get the most joy for making a person's life easier even if it is only sitting there and listening to them tell me what's bothering them. The things I'm most proud of for myself is my education I have a bachelors in psychology and a Masters in health care administration. I really want to continue to learn new and more effective ways to safely take care of people so they can remain independent well into their later years.
