About Alicia

I found my love of caregiving when I got my first job at the age of 16. I got a job as a dining associate in a retirement home and ended up working there for almost 5 years. I had such a wonderful time building relationships with all of the residents and making their meals as enjoyable as I could. Since then I have tried to work with people as much as possible. I volunteer at Hospice to provide companionship to individuals at the end of their lives and I currently work in a group home with I/DD individuals as well. I love doing what I can to take care of people and make them as happy as I can and I got a degree in Psychology with a minor in Gerontology so that I can continue to do that for the rest of my life. I plan on pursuing a degree in Counseling so that I have more expertise that I can use to improve the lives of those I work with. I enjoy working with seniors specifically because I am fairly young and think that relationships between generations are so important and special.
