I started out working with children as a daycare teacher in 2010, from there I started working with children with intellectual and physical disabilities through an agency. I have worked with adults who require assistances with their daily needs such as bathing, cleaning, shopping etc. I have worked with young adults and now my current position is Program manager for a group home with seniors who have both physical and intellectual disabilities. I am a CPR and First Aid instructor, I have my certification to administer medication through the state of Connecticut. I teach Fire and Safety as well as Body mechanics and Water Safety. I have worked for DDS funded agencies for the last nine years and counting.
