About Lakesha

I am a new resident of Georgia, I am currently seeking full time employment but until then this will be a great way for me to utlize my skills and experience. I have a bachelors in psychology. I have worked at Vanderbilt Psychiatric Hospital for 3 yrs which has giving me great experience working with geriatrics. I am also a mother so I understand the situation of needing help with a family member and seeking someone you can trust.
