About Tulea

I began providing caregiving services at the age of 18 years old for an agency and privately. I have always enjoyed providing services for those less fortunate of having help via family and/or companionship. I take pride in helping individuals and families with services that they cannot or no longer provide for themselves. A personal achievement I am proud of is returning to school at twenty-four and obtaining my high school diploma, and continuing on to trade school, college and then graduate school accomplishing every goal I set forth. I undergraduate studies opened the spectrum of becoming and remaining in the helping profession. I obtained a bachelor in human service; I attended grad school and studied Applied Forensic Specialization (Grad cert program) obtaining my grad certificate and M.A. in Forensic Psychology: Applied Forensic Services having one-year to complete when I return. I believe that continuous skill building and education combined with dedication and empathy for clients served allows a great caregiver/client relationship.
