I have been assisting and providing companionship to seniors since i was 6 years old. When i was just a boy,I would enjoy visiting with my next door neighbors, an elderly husband and wife couple almost everyday. They were my friends as I had very few friends my own age. I visited with them , and I helped them with their daily chores and in return the wife would have cookies or cake baked for me to eat as my pay, it was the best . My love for the elderly continued as I grew up and moved away. I love being of service to people in need of my help, I feel Blessed when God allows me the opportunity to help others who need my assistance whether they happen to be elderly or disabled. I also worked other jobs including: Food Service, Delivery driver, cashier, and although I do love every job that I have worked in the past, I found that assisting the elderly and disabled is much more rewarding to me. When I graduated from high school, My first job was when I worked at the Austin State School, (where i was employed for 14 years and I have now made a career out of caring for others I now have over 30 years of experience working in the Caregiver, Direct Care, and Personal Assistant Care field, and I can say that I have worked in most of the State programs, from direct care of MHMR residents in an institutional setting to Personal Care Attendant Services with Physically and Mentally Challenged individuals living in their own homes, to managing MHMR Group homes, to caring for senior who choose to live in their own homes and seek assistance with their daily care needs. I am a Healthy, active male in very good shape , and love to work with people... I Have Absolutely NO Criminal History what so ever....
