Summary

I started out in 1990 as a nurses aid, this was before you had to be certified. Went to school to get my certification, in which I was working in a long term facility while going to class. After long term care I went into home care and hospice. I am a very passionate person when it comes to customer care, with my profession I had to do a lot of customer service to keep clients feeling better about their situation. I currently have my CPR and first aid.
