Hey there, my name is Michael. I just graduated from Mchenry County College with my Associate's Degree and am enrolled and start my Bachelor's Degree in August. My concentration in school is in Physical Education, I will eventually go on to become a gym teacher. I have been a Personal Trainer for for 7 years now, working at small gyms in the Huntley area like, going vertical and big gyms like Lifetime Fitness in Algonquin. I have had my own business for 3 years now and it is amazing. The thing is, I only work part-time hours, which is great when I am a full-time student. This summer I am not taking summer school classes so I have some extra time on my hands. I served tables and have done manual labor jobs for summer gigs but was looking for something different, something more rewarding and less stressful. So, I joined Carelinx hoping to spread the word about my business and find someone in the community who may be looking to hire someone part-time to help take care of and be friends with an elderly loved one. I can drive, slightly cook, clean, run errands, help move things and listen real well. Thank you for reading!
