About Katherine

I love to make the world a brighter place! I find that through caregiving. I love to see others with a smile and I take great pride in my work. I get great fulfillment from being a caretaker so this is my passion. I worked for a home-care company for 2.5 years and I learned so much from the people I cared for. It has been a life changing experience that I am grateful for!
