Hello! My favorite thing about being a caregiver is meeting new people and being able to help as many people as I can! I am very patient, caring and work very well with others. I love being apart of watching people grow and regain their spark!

Attentive, caring, compassionate

Caregiving has been my lifelong job and passion. I have spent 28 years raising a family of 6 children, 3 of which are still at home. Putting the needs of others first has always been a priority for me. In most recent years I have chosen to add caregiving to my life and continued with my career as a business owner and professor's assistant. I have chosen to do this because I feel I can always give just a bit more. My degrees in Psychology and Human Services have given me a solid understanding of human behavior and just how fragile we can be in times of need. Giving back to my community in the form of caregiving gives me the opportunity to make a difference in a person and family's life. I believe I am patient, caring, compassionate, trustworthy and I aspire to make a difference. I have also used those attributes in the positions I have held. As a professor's assistant I have the opportunity to be a support person for students professionally and emotionally. Cheering them on as they strive to achieve their goals in college. I love this! Each semester I am given the opportunity to make that difference. Providing care for those that need help so they may stay in their homes and make daily life easier is what I can do to give back. Using my skills and understanding to positively impact someone's life is something I am proud of. I was given the opportunity to care for a Dementia/Alzheimer's client for 5 years. I truly embraced each step of her illness journey providing her with understanding, care, and companionship, helping her to maintain her dignity and live her best life during those final years. On fun note, I am also a dog lover! My hobbies are spending time with my family, hiking, gardening and reading.
