I grew up living within walking distance of my grandparents on both sides of my family. My great grandmother lived with my family and I for a number of years and my mother was her caregiver. When my grandfather was diagnosed with Alzheimer's he lived with us as well. My granny and my grandparents were big parts of my life and lead me to a love and great respect for the elder population. I moved to Buffalo from Syracuse and my first job here was with Home Instead Senior Care. Through the amazing seniors I met, I realized that serving the elderly was what I wanted to do. I am a compassionate, patient and creative human, and I would like to use these traits to help others. I believe that helping someone live at home for as long as possible is so valuable to the individual, and their families in so many ways. I want to help to make that possible for the elderly of Western NY!
