I am very easy going, type person, very much a people person, very much an extrovert. I enjoy getting to know people and hearing their stories. Part of why I became I caregiver is because I grew up with having both sets of grandparents close by. I always enjoyed hanging out with them, learning from them, being with them and hearing their stories from days gone by. As for what I enjoy most about being a caregiver, I enjoy getting to know my clients/residents on a personal level. A personal achievement that I am proud of is I have written a woman's devotional, but has yet to be published. Also, I am a very crafty person and have several crafts that I enjoy doing: crochet, paper crafts, some painting, some drawing.
