Summary

I am a caring and dependable care professional with over 20 years of experience in private-duty work, home health, dementia care, and hospice support. I’m comfortable working with patients and families during some of their hardest moments, and I always try to bring patience, respect, and clear communication to every situation. Over the years, I’ve coordinated daily care needs, kept families updated, and worked closely with nurses and other staff to make sure my patients get what they need. My goal is always to make care easier, safer, and more comfortable for the people I’m supporting.
