Hello, everyone I have worked in residentials with seniors, special needs, ADHD, autistic, down syndrome and physically disabled people for many years. I also have an adult son who is autistic and lives independently a grandson who is autistic. I have always had the passion to bring joy and quality to these beautiful individuals. Ever since I was in junior high, I spent my lunchtime hanging out in the classrooms with children with down syndrome and other disabilities I learned sign language at an early age although I'm a little rusty I haven't used it in a while but I still know some I am currently enrolled in school to train service dogs, because I know the love a dog can bring to people.
