Summary
Compassionate and dedicated individual with a passion for cooking, painting, and quality time spent with my son. The passing of my grandfather due to dementia sparked my interest in the MAC field. Witnessing his challenges inspired me to provide comfort and assistance to those in need. Taking immense pride in supporting individuals who require it the most, I believe in offering compassion and care to everyone.
