I am a kind, caring and compassionate person with over 10 years experience working with persons with disabilities in various settings. Before moving back to New York to be closer to my family, I was employed as K-5th grade Special Education Resource Teacher in NC. I have experience working with children with Mental Retardation, Autism and Learning Disabilities.

    Lori and I have been friends for approximately 17 years. In the time I have known her she has been a student and has always worked with children and adults with disabilities, particularly children with profound disabilities. Lori has immense patience, she is kind, honest and respectful. She respects people and is very good with the elderly population as well. She is well educated and has common sense. If I needed someone to care for my family member I would want Lori. In addition, she is an animal lover, very clean and neat, and well-organized.
