I'd describe my personality as positive, calm, and quick-thinking. I like caring for people with special needs because they exude a happiness that rarely exists in the world. Joy is infectious, and it's almost always on the faces and in the actions of people with special needs. I started caring for people with special needs when I graduated high school. I immediately got a job as a paraprofessional at the school district in my hometown while attending college, and it was the most rewarding job that I have ever had. In my spare time, I like to play and listen to music, play video games, ride my bike, spend time with my girlfriend and dog, and watch movies (I'm a HUGE Star Wars fan!) I will do everything that I can to care for your family members. I want to be their best friend and someone they look forward to seeing everyday, because I'll be just as excited to see them! My skills include patience, fun-loving, and intuitive.
