About Maggie

I have a varied work history, but my passion is caring for others. This is where I find my joy. After a 30 year career in accounting, I took semi-retirement and went to work at Marbridge Ranch caring for residents with cognitive challenges such as down syndrome, traumatic brain injury, autism, etc. Caring for 30 male residents was, of course, challenging at times, yet it was the most fulfilling work of my life. I taught a few residents meditation techniques that helped them with anxiety disorders and for that, I'm extremely proud. Being semi-retired, I have flexible hours. Writer, meditation instructor, past life regression therapist are some of my other skills. My personal traits have been described as sweet, kind, thoughtful, empathetic and patient which I feel make me perfect for this sort of work. Thanks for considering me.
