About Jessica

For the past 6 years, I have followed a job track that prioritizes quality time and building relationships. This became a strong focus after a conversion I had in college, finding the purpose of my life in Jesus. Throughout my working life, my natural gifts of reflective listening, encouragement, self motivation, and inspiring others to work toward goals have been tuned and developed. I've learned also how to be self-reflecive, honest and clear in communication, and an efficient multitasker. Being asked to lead a missionary team for a year, and then doing it, is a personal achievement I look back on with gratitude because it forced me to utilize all my strengths and develop into skills I didn't think I had, like public speaking, attentiveness to detail and surrender to what I can't control. I would be a good caregiver because I'm passionate about sharing the love that I've been given- both in friendship and the tasks that come with caregiving- and helping whoever I'm with see how important they are. I will not be available to start any caregiving position until late in August 2020.

I learned and adapted to various skills and routines in order to best support my housemates with intellectual disabilities. This included getting my Home Care Aid certification. I'm in the process of becoming delegated by an RN to administer certain medications. I also encouraged creativity, proactivity, and teamwork in all aspects of community living and decision making. I've been invited to accompany our residents to promotion events to speak, and I've been invited to play music at community gatherings.
