About Emma

I have always had a deep passion for people. If there is anything I can do to brighten someones day, I do my best to do just that. I want to get into caregiving because of many personal experiences I have gone through. A year and a half ago my brother had a brain tumor and had to undergo surgery. I worked with him everyday and watching him regain his strength. This was one of the most rewarding things in my life. My grandparents are very valuable people to me of whom I love to provide companionship for. I love listening to their stories, going on walks and talking about hard topics in order to spark deep conversations. Although I have no actual experience in this line of work, I am willing to do whatever it takes to learn and be the best at the jobs I am presented with. I am very proud of the jobs I have had in the past. I work hard and the most important thing to me in a job is building relationships with others. Everywhere I have worked, I have built a new family; and this is something I am truly proud of. This makes work more enjoyable for everyone involved.
