About Shannon

1. I became a caregiver because I wanted to learn how to help save someone's life. 2. Encouraging people and being able to be a friend while working at the same time is what I enjoy most about being a caregiver. 3. Graduating from high school and receiving a dual seal diploma is a personal achievement that I am most proud of. 4. I a planning to return to school and become an RN.
