About Kari

I make a great caregiver because I genuinely care about the people in my care. I am compassionate and gentle as well as patient with everyone. I love helping people because I have had to help to take care of my grandparents and believe that it takes a special kind of person to invest in this profession. I like meeting people and learning their stories, you would be amazed at the things you learn just by talking to your patients. I recently graduated LVN and am waiting on taking the state test, I have been working toward that for quite a few years.

Loving people makes me a great caregiver because love is an action word. I became a caregiver because I love caring for those not thought of. My greatest accomplishment was learning to love in spite of and getting vaccinated.

Hi! I'm Danica. I just moved to San Antonio from Hawaii. I love interior designing and admiring old, classic, and modern architectures. I'd love to visit Netherlands, UK, Scotland, and Bali. A clean and organized environment makes me happy and calm. I enjoy small "DIY" projects and currently making our house feel like home.
