About Yvonne

Hi. My name is Yvonne but I go by Kathy. By nature I am a nurturer. I like to help people especially to the one's who need it the most. My mother was a caregiver. I remember at a young age going with her to her jobs. I thought it was so exciting going and listening to the people she cared for telling me stories of their lives. Today I am still intrigued with the same. When my mother was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer I fully understood the importance of helping her. She needed me and that was where I was going to be. I had to be very patient and give her the best quality of life that she had left. Which is why my heart and soul goes into my job. Because helping someone else always helps me grow as a person.
