Hello! I am a nurturing soul at heart and live for the moment. I absolutely enjoy every aspect of helping others and thrive off of trial and error learning. I spent a great deal of my teens mentoring troubled youth with a variety of mental health issues, guiding them onto a better path. No person reacts the same, so you must have patience to pursue other options into their minds and hearts. Many had anger outbursts and other emotional distresses, and I was there to help assist them into positive decision making and help process the current and past events. Starting at the age of 15, I helped take care of my neighbor with severe cerebral palsy and epilepsy. I took care of diaper changes, bathing, g-tube feedings, assisting in any of her seizures, and countless other tasks. She was an absolute gem and she alone definitely taught me a lot about not only the medical aspects, but how you should never waste time on negative outcomes.
