I'm a kind caring patient honest person who loves to care for others.

I'm compassionate and enjoy doing things for people who aren't able to be independent anymore. I'm a former EMT and firefighter which are accomplishments I'm proud of achieving. What I enjoy most about working with my clients is hearing stories from their lives and getting to know them as people, not just as clients.

I love working with people. That's my passion it takes patients and communication skills and most importantly being present. I have been a caregiver for over five plus years and something I will continue to do.

Being patient and understanding is first when it comes to caregiving. I love to listen and do anything I can to make my clients day smoother. I was a caregiver to my grandmother with dementia. I cared for my partially paralyzed mother, and I now care for my mentally disabled brother. I also worked with special needs children at the Green County Schools. I enjoy caring for others and helping out as much as I can. I'm proud that I have the experience to do a job that I love so well.

I started with my grandmother who had dementia. Giving her the support she needed to do the daily tasks. After being a caregiver with her it has inspired me to do it for other people,
