I have several years of experience in caregiving and healthcare, including working as a CNA and QMA within long-term care settings. Throughout my roles, I’ve focused on supporting others’ growth, whether that’s helping patients maintain independence or training new staff on best practices. I’m known for being reliable, patient, and a strong communicator, and I enjoy creating structured, supportive environments where people can learn and feel comfortable. I’m especially interested in roles where I can continue developing others and contributing to a positive team environment!
