About Markiesha

I became a caregiver because I have a very compassionate heart. I love dealing with elderly people; One, because they usually have a very interesting story that young people could learn from, and secondly, because I generally enjoy caring for people who can not do as much for themselves anymore. I love making an elderly person's day. Although some have illnesses that prohibit them from doing much, I understand that the elderly still enjoy doing small fun activities. A personal achievement that I am proud of would have to be making the Dean's List for both semesters that I was in college. I am a very mature and responsible 19 year old, who is now taking online courses for college. I am very bright, gifted, responsible, and caring. I have a heart of gold, and I love making people smile. I prepare meals, do light house work, cleaning, and laundry.
