I have been a dedicated massage therapist for 18 years, with much of my career focused on working with seniors. I lived in Boston for 15 years before moving to NYC, where I've been for the past year and a half. The geriatric population holds a special place in my heart. One of my favorite clients, Ben S., was in his 80s and prioritized his self-care with dedication. I'm energetic, kind, and compassionate. I love caring for seniors, listening to their stories, and learning from their wisdom. I'm seeking a role providing companionship and support, assisting with light chores, meal prep, medication management, errands, and daily movement. In my 20s, I was a senior companion for a wonderful woman, Norma. One of my closest friends was in her 90s before she passed during the pandemic. I bring warmth, comfort, and a positive presence. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, music, cooking, reading, and yoga. Skills: empathy, patience, communication
