I've been providing care on a personal and professional level most of my life. I've worked as a Caregiver and Direct Support Professional for close to 10 years before moving into administrative roles in related fields. Some positions I've held include Case Manager for a local home care agency, Talent Acquisition and Compliance Manager with a nationwide and award winning home care agency, Director of Senior Services caring for aging individuals living with Alzheimer's/Dementia. I currently work as the Training and Development Specialist at an organization that provides residential and employment services to individuals with intellectual disabilities. I'm first aid and CPR certified, have reliable transportation, do not smoke and can provide references. Feel free to check some of my reviews here on Care.
