About Michael

I decided after 18 years in my old career field that I was going to spend the rest of my working years doing something that I found rewarding. That desire led me to become a CNA. I enjoy helping others even if that means just talking when they need someone to talk to. I think that the elderly in particular have a wealth of knowledge and experiences that are overlooked by most people. I have sincere compassion for anyone that has an impairment or is seemingly forgotten. I'm very proud that I was able to go back to school and accomplish my goal of becoming a CNA. When I took my certification exam there was a lot of teens and twenty somethings there and most of them didn't pass. I'm a levelheaded, easy going, compassionate person and I enjoy people. I find contentment in the simple things in life and helping someone is at the top of the list.
