Being able to listen to people and try to understand them is what would make me a great caregiver. I love human interaction and making others feel like someone cares about them. I love learning the wisdom that other people have because I try to take everything as a learning experience. Working with other people, with or without disabilities, is also a humbling experience. My studies in psychology, medical sociology, and women & gender's studies have really opened my mind, and eyes, to my surroundings and other human beings. A personal achievement that I am proud of is my school 100%. Everything I have done, thus far, has made me very proud because I have had to endure endless amount of patience and sacrifice to get to where I am today.
