About Melissa

I love to help people. Its very rewarding to make a positive difference in another individual's life. I feel there's value in every person's life and I enjoy making others feel important and valuable. I have a great respect for older individuals as they have amazing stories of how they made their mark in the world and paved a way for the younger generation. I am currently a student at Seminole State College in the Physical Therapy Assistant program and hope being a caregiver will be something I can do to both make a positive difference for someone and also help provide money for school.
