I am a caregiver with a combined 12 years of experience supporting individuals and families facing a wide range of care needs. My background includes providing compassionate assistance to those with physical and intellectual disabilities, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, mental illness, cancer, and stroke-related conditions. I am committed to offering patients dignity, patience, comfort, and dependable companionship while giving families confidence that their loved ones are receiving attentive care. I have worked in home health aide facilities, developmental centers for mentally and physically disabled adults, provided private in home care and I was recently caring for a 79-year-old who was bedbound with multiple medical needs, an 84-year-old with moderate dementia, and a gentleman with hemiplegia. I have a degree in fine arts and psychology. Outside of caregiving I work out, spend time with my dog, read, and make art.
