About Jennifer

21 years ago, I made my dream of moving from my home state of New Mexico to NYC a reality. It has been the most amazing journey since then! I have a background in journalism and creative writing. I am currently studying to be a grief specialist through my online masters degree program. I have a lifetime of experience with caregiving. I have of I have a lot of personal experience with grief, death, and non death losses. My mother lost her vision at age 24 from Type 1 diabetes and gave birth to me at age 31. As a strong independent blind woman, artist, and teacher, she taught me to teach everyone with kindness, equality, and respect. I have experience being her sighted guide when she did not use her cane and caregiver with insulin and blood sugar management. I love helping with mail, listening to music with clients, reading articles and books aloud, going for walks and conversing.
