About Elissa

I have an extensive background in bookkeeping but have always had a passion for helping others. I started my position as a home health aide when a family friend was injured in a car accident. Though not needed I choose to get my CNA certificate in order to make sure I knew that I was going the best care possible and to insure that I knew the proper way to handle medical situations. I have held various positions on an as needed or PRN basis as I worked full-time in the bookkeeping/HR field. As my position came to an end I was pleased to have the time open up in my schedule to allow me the opportunity to focus on my passion of helping individuals live the happiest of lives.
