I graduated with my BA in Psychology from the University of Iowa, and am planning on going back in a few years for my PhD in Neuroscience. Until then, I’m in the process of renewing my Certified Nurse’s Aide License, and also work as a delivery driver (groceries, take-out, and necessities). In 2018 I worked for a year at a daycare, and then switched to private care until the pandemic began. Before that, I worked as a nurse's aide in nursing homes (5 years). I love caring for people on both sides of the age spectrum. I’ve lived in the mountains of Colorado for the last 4 years but have recently made the move back home to Iowa to be closer to family. I have two nephews and two nieces (10, 7, 4, and the youngest is 4 months) who I am fortunate enough to be extremely close with and Read more have helped raise. I have a fur child of my own; a male 7-year-old chocolate lab named Meeko. I’ve helped take care of family and friends since I was 10 and thoroughly love being a caregiver. I have First Aide and CPR experience. If you have any questions for me feel free to reach out and ask!
