My personality traits: I'm funny, kind, love, patient, attentive, friendly, honest. These are the traits that help me be an amazing caregiver. What attracted you to being a caregiver?: My grandpa was very sick he has Alzheimer's, arthritis, diabetes. You name it, he had everything in the book. I took care of him for 6years until his passing. Throughout that time I loved teaching him how to tie his shoe laces even though he'd forget. He loved watching me cook. He'd sing while I cleaned. It was such an amazing experience. I devoted myself to help other people feel the same love. And that's the journey I'm going towards. What do you enjoy the most about being a caregiver?: Getting to know my client..sooner or later they won't be my "client". We'll then soon become friends. What is a personal achievement you are proud of?: Moving out living on my own. I realized how much your life changes once you become fully independent. And i believe some people who need a little bit of help thrive for the same. And i will teach in small steps how to do so. Like i did for myself.
