About Elizabeth

I became a caregiver after volunteering with elderly and special needs individuals for a year and a half. I was pursuing a career in veterinary medicine, but through these volunteering experiences decided to pursue a career in the human healthcare field. I am currently a student at Missouri State University, pursuing a degree in Exercise and Movement Science, expected graduation of May 2015. I will continue my education graduating from MSU to an accelerated Bachelor's of Nursing program.

    I like to be there for someone that cannot care for themselves because it is not easy to live a life like this when you cannot do things for yourself that you may have once been able to and cannot now. I have been caregiving since the year 2000 and just have a compassion for people. I am a certified medical assistant and also earned a certificate of phlebotomy. I am currently working toward my associates degree and have one semester left to complete. I plan in the near future to take classes to be a licensed practical nurse. I have 5 kids that are ages 17 to 23. I have a chiweenie named neeko that is 4 and he thinks he is a real baby and so spoiled.
