About Afrika

I love catering. I'm a very nurturing individual who came into the medical field to be a ray of sunshine to those who dont seem to have a silver lining. I was raised by an all military family and as I grew up I was proud but I also seen the affects of war. My own family is affected by PTSD as well as Alzheimer's and other neurological diseases which is what inspired me to be a caregiver. I find it very fulfilling to learn from my customers and also making them feel safe, loved, and ashamed of their situation. I went through Medical school as a single mother with no support but I was so determined to give back that I stuck through it and it was worth it!

I love be a help to others especially our seniors who have sacrifice and paved the way for this generation. I believe it is our duty to give back to those who spent their lifetime helping others. I have so much respect for our seniors and believe they deserve to live the rest of their days feeling loved and appreciated. I have dedicated my life and time in making sure I pay my respects to those who can no longer help themselves due to old age or otherwise.
