I am an Army veteran and compassionate caregiver with experience supporting individuals with special needs of all ages. My military background has given me strong values of discipline, responsibility, and adaptability, which I bring into every caregiving role. I assist with daily living skills, mobility support, behavior guidance, meal preparation, and structured activities that promote independence and confidence. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and clear communication, and I work closely with families to ensure each individual's unique needs and goals are met. Whether it's providing companionship, transportation, or hands-on care, I am committed to creating a safe, supportive, and respectful environment where every individual feels valued.
