I am punctual, respectful considerate and always willing to go the extra mile when required to get the job done.

I have some college credits and graduated high school and have a one year certificate in public administration. Although i am not certified in nursing assistant care, i have worked extensively in the area of caring under the supervision of a doctor from Yale University Hospital.

I am a quick and willing learner who is polite, respectful and easy to get along with. I am adaptable to the situation as well as possible and will take all the necessary efforts to get the job done in a timely and complete manner.

I am a good listener and can provide good company to conversations while being a caring caregiver.
