I am a 21 year old girl who just had a son in October. I am caring and compassionate. As a high school senior I went through an apprenticeship program that sent me through a CNA course at Gateway in Racine. I finished the course and got the certification. This was in 2013 and since then I have allowed my certification to expire. I do have experience as a CNA in a nursing home. I also helped my grandpa through his cancer treatments and hospice until he passed. I love helping others and have always enjoyed the job. Although my grandpa was close to me, I am also great with people I don't know. But I am easy to open up to and easy to talk to and love to meet other people and hear their stories. I am patient and understanding and ready to help.
