As a neuroscience PhD student with a deep academic focus on neurodegenerative conditions, I'm passionate about supporting older adults-especially those navigating Alzheimer's, dementia, and cognitive decline. I bring both lived caregiving experience and scientific understanding of the brain mechanisms behind memory loss, aging, and neurological health. I approach every individual with patience, dignity, and respect, offering companionship, cognitive engagement, and dependable support with day-to-day needs. I'm deeply committed to creating calm, safe environments that prioritize comfort, connection, and mental well-being. Whether it's a memory game, a meaningful conversation, or simply sitting together in quiet, I see every moment as a chance to affirm humanity and offer care.
