Hello! I have 10. 5 years of caregiving experience supporting individuals ages 9-82 in private care, assisted living, and facility settings. My passion for caregiving began with helping care for my autistic brother. Through advocacy, educational support, and skill-building activities, I helped encourage his speech, fine motor, and gross motor development. His progress inspired me to expand my knowledge and pursue caregiving professionally. I have experience supporting individuals with autism, ADHD, cancer, quadriplegia, paraplegia, MS, ALS, TBIs, and Down syndrome. I assist with activities that support therapy goals, mobility, daily living skills, and comfort. I also make an effort to bridge language barriers and create a safe, welcoming environment for every client. I am CPR and First Aid certified through the American Heart Association and currently pursuing a nursing education. I look forward to connecting with your family!
