About Jerrica

Empathetic individual looking to improve the quality of life of those in need. I feel most purposeful when I am able to spread happiness and positivity to individual who need it most. I know what it is like to need assistance, and I know what a difference it makes when it comes from someone who is passionate vs someone who just needs a job. A personal achievement I am proud of is the new level of joy I have acquired over my life. Joy is something no one can take away from me yet it's something I intentionally give away daily.

I am very loving of others around me . I love helping others with ANYTHING. I've been learning and doing home care with my grandmother from the age of 9 until she recently passed 2 years ago. I'm most happy when I'm able to help those in need. A personal achievement for me is graduating high school at the early age of 16.
