I started out caring for my mother-in-law. She just had surgery on her foot and needed someone to help take care of her. I enjoy being able to help those in need. I feel like I'm giving back to the community. One personal achievement I'm proud of was when my grandfather's blood sugar level dropped on him, I was able to stay calm and give him the proper sustenance he needed to bring his sugar back up without having to call EMS, all while taking care of my toddler and infant. I always strive to give 110% on all that I do. I'm reliable and dependable. Very good people person and I never bring personal problems to my workplace.
