About Vanessa

I have always had a passion in the caring of others, whether it be family or acquaintance. I went to school and studied to be a medical assistant before I began to work as a caregiver. What actually prompted me to join this field was my grandfather; he had ongoing medical problems and I was one of the few people who would look after him, even at a young age. I feel that being able to care for others helps me grow as an individual.
