Making a difference in someone's life is what drives me as a caregiver. With 13 years of experience supporting adults and seniors, I'm passionate about promoting their well-being and independence.

I'm skilled at adapting to changing routines, de-escalating stressful situations, and incorporating memory care activities. I have experience caring for people with dementia, Alzheimer's, pulmonary and heart disease, diabetes management, Parkinson's, MS. Hospice care. Hands on care. Personal care, wound care, med admin., meal preparation. I communicate with families through written reports, texts, calls, always respecting their preferred method. Creating a comfortable environment is important to me when connecting with care recipients. I look forward to bringing my experience and heartfelt dedication to your family.
