Summary
I enjoy taking care of others with a track record of fostering an educational and engaging environment for my little brother and my younger cousins. Creative play is an area in which I excel, and I do so with safety in mind. Along with my brother, patients at Ronald McDonald House, our dogs, and other animals in our neighborhood, I have demonstrated a commitment to pet and child care, ensuring well-being with attentive, and loving service.
