About Julie

I am caregiver at my core. I have a variety of experiences and extensive training from spending 8 years as a CNA, working in memory care, Skilled Nursing & doing private in home respite. I spent 14 years as a Social Worker after earning a Bachelors in the field. I then raised 4 kids while running a successful piano studio. In 2013 I went back to school & earned a degree as an Occupational Therapy Assistant which I feel combines my love of Caregiving with both my experiences as CNA & Social Worker. Home Health is stressful and crazy and I miss the relationship building. Looking for a different setting to apply my knowledge, skills and love of helping. I care deeply for my patients, enjoy building trust and enabling patients to have the best self determined quality of life possible! I'm patient, quiet natured and even keeled. I tend to be very empathetic and connect deeply with those I care for. In most cases, I feel those I care for enrich my life and give me back more than I give. I have learned much from those I've worked with and cared for. It's humbling and rewarding work.

When I was young , being a help to others wa s very important to me. Witnessing suffering when I could make a difference was the reason for my choice to be a Medical Professional and I went to college to be a Registered Respiratory Therapist. I worked in the Heart Clinic at St Luke's Regional Medical Ctr in Boise Idaho, the Heart Transplant unit in Salt Lake City, Utah; and an LTAC Center in the San Francisco area for individuals who were difficult to wean off the ventilator and move on with their lives. A very rewarding history and it was a joy to see each patient go home with a new lease on life and move forward.
