I became a care giver at 16. I always loved to help others and at the time I was fully helping and accompanying my grandmother that suffered from dementia. Unfortunately she passed but I found my life calling. Then unfortunately during a trip to the zoo in Chicago IL my now 10 year old son was shit by a stray bullet, leaving him paralyzed. After months of learning his care and developing a regular routine that fit our lives, I decided to go to school. I graduated with a 96% and was class valedictorian amongst 42 students. I’m still in school to further myself in healthcare and looking to become a Medical Assistant and then RN. I have 4 lovely boys aging 13,10,8 and 6. I’m very good and patient with children and education is my strong suit. Teaching study habits and continuous education to give a head start. I Read more have endless of skills and hope to share them.
