About Dawn

I have always known that being a caregiver is what I was meant to do. I have had the opportunity to work in school health as a paraprofessional and medication technician. I have also had the opportunity to work in a private office. Being a caregiver has always been an innate strength for me, very rewarding. I am a high energy, sensitive individual who will not shy away from a challenge. Of course raising my two children and helping to put them through college, being blessed with a marriage of 28 years, these are precious accomplishments to me. I have competed in several marathons and am a great advocate of exercise for physical and mental well being. While employed by The High Road School of Perryville, MD; I was awarded the district Employee of Distinction recognition award. Presently, I am employed by The University of DE, I was given a performance raise, based on going beyond my job description everyday. The dean of education honored me by also sending me a letter of appreciation for my dedication and hard work. Recently, my husband has accepted a position that will require us to move south of Howard County. This is why I am currently seeking other employment as a CNA, MT in Maryland.

I have successfully completed a training program and state examination at Morning Star Academy-School of Allied Health in Rockville, MD in 2012. Outside of homecare, my hobbies include taking care of my 3 yo son, practicing special effects makeup, painting and drawing. Previously, I worked in long-term care facilities located in Virginia. I have been working in homecare consistently since 2015. My experience in homecare has been rewarding and less stressful. I love working closely with families and clients to make sure their care and companionship needs are met. I am able to adapt quickly to different working environments. I firmly believe in providing compassionate care to enhance the quality of life for an individual. As a former employee of Snakemans Tattoo Studio I learned the importance of sterilization, blood borne pathogen safety, and customer service. I also learned the value of communication, critical thinking skills, time management, and teamwork while working as a CNA at Golden Living Center and Shenandoah Valley Westminster Canterbury (SVWC). I am determined to continue to advance in learning and skills. I have demonstrated reliability and hard work in the past and continue to do so. I look forward to hearing from you.
