    I have a very outgoing personality that lends me well to be fun and helpful for folks at home that need assistance. I am tall and strong and this gives families and their loved ones the confidence to have me help their loved one around the house and help them with the daily activities. I am an artist and musician for life and these passions of mine have always been a shining beam of light for those struggling at home. It lends to great conversations and encouraging relationships.

    I am a great caregiver, because I am a God fearing Christian who believes that Jesus Christ died for us all and he loves us all. also because I love and am full of passion for my career, it is the most rewarding career in the workforce. I get my reward from taking care of people by helping them brighten up their day as well as assisting them with all the help they need. to see the smiles on my client's faces brings me great joy to know that I have been the one to cause that beautiful smile. I believe in the in do onto others as you want to be done onto yourself. one day I will be an elderly women and would need someone too help me. I always remind myself the word of God "you reap what you sew" I also have a lot of experience in the Caregiving field. 4 years and 1/2
