About Melissa

Hi my name is Melissa Jenkins. I came a current student at CVCC studying to be a nurse. I knew at a young age at 7 that I loved helping people. I helped care for my 5 youngers brothers and my mom. At 12 I moved in with my grandmother to help care for her when she had breast cancer. Along with being a student I also work at Bayada Home Healthcare and at an assisted living facility. I enjoy helping those around me. In 2018 I received my CNA1 and CNA2 to grow my skills to better provide for the people I work with.
