About Tonya

I am a very caring and patient person. I also take the initiative to make sure that my job is done to its fullest. My mom got me my first job at Rem Iowa so following in her footsteps I provided care there for 16 years. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is knowing that people are taken care of and that makes me feel like I am giving back to the community. My most proud achievement is being a mother to my four amazing children.
