I have a great passion for caring for the elderly, as well as for those with special needs. I have had the wonderful experience of working with some amazing people, while learning how to care for the needs of every individual. I began my training as a CNA while a sophomore in high school. Since, I have worked in nursing homes, for nursing agencies, and privately as a HHA over the past 10 years. I have experience working with those who have needed companion care, to dementia and Alzheimer's, cared for those who have had MS, as well as ALS, those who have suffered from strokes, as well as paraplegic and quadriplegic care.
