I have been a Case Manager with a DHS caseload for child welfare cases and also a Substance Abuse Case Manager & Program Coordinator for a state funded drug & alcohol treatment program. I have also done remedial or behavioral intervention services as they call it now with chronically mentally ill children with severely disruptive behaviors. There really isn't a population in human services I haven't worked with. I really love my work. I'm not in it for the money. No one works this field for the money. You have to have the heart for it! I look forward to working with you & your family!!

I genuinely love helping make peoples lives easier and being able to give them company . My favorite part about working with older people is the conversations we have and relationships I build. I like knowing I can make a difference in someone's life. I am very social and active I like keeping busy.
