I worked with a man whose Alzheimer's disease presented in his early fifties. Over a three and a half year period I accompanied him to lectures, museums and many concerts. My affinity for this work came from the great satisfaction I derived from making this gentleman's life comfortable, stimulating and rewarding for both of us. I enjoy helping persons with different dementias remain as connected and engaged as possible to their communities and families. I mounted two arts shows for my client. One of which was featured on National public Radio. As the oldest of ten children I was raised to value both family and community and carried those values forward by : volunteering at Corpus Christi Church; helping to found the Manhattan School for Children: as an active fundraiser for various groups I was charged with planning meals and events for up to 600 people :I have also volunteered with Arts & Minds an organization that facilitates museum experiences for persons with dementia
