Over the years I have worked with the elderly population, individuals with substance abuse and developmental disabilities. I have enjoyed my line of work and I always have great relationship with the people I serve including their family. It is also a rewarding feeling knowing that I can make a difference in someone's life and I feel blessed every day. For 12 years in NY I've worked for a prestigious company managing several group homes where my main goal was to ensure that the individuals in my care received the best treatment possible and that their needs and goals were fully met so that they could live meaningful life. I've also worked for a half way house company housing individuals with substance abuse as a house coordinator for 11years. The people in my care always enjoyed my company and my loving personality is infectious. I Recently relocate to Tampa and currently work as a Patient Care Technician at a nearby hospital.
