Becoming a caregiver is a result of being a recent survivor of Leukemia. Those individuals that cared for me during my illness lest a lasting impression on me. I enjoy taking care of people, a kind of paying it forward process, as I know I will be there someday. What am I most proud of? Earning my Wings as a Marine Aviator, leading Marines and seeing them go on to very successful careers. And subsequently earning major leadership awards at an aerospace company. I enjoy teaching and learning. Everyone has something to teach! You just have to be a student, when they are teaching! :) I have been previously certified in Advance first aid, and have a significant knowledge of holistic and pharmacology.
