Marissa’s Bio
Hi!
My name is Marissa and I'm currently a senior at the University of Pennsylvania. After spending the past three years primarily focused on my studies, I've been blessed with more time to work outside of the classroom.
While I have never officially worked as a care companion, in high school, I helped care for my grandmother with basic companionship (sharing meals, playing cards, etc.) and driving to and from doctors appointments.
Prior to college, I worked for multiple families in the Orlando, Florida area as a babysitter. The children I took care of ranged from the ages of 6 months old to 12 years old. During my summers, I worked as a camp counselor for two year old children and in the service industry as a hostess at a restaurant.
While I could probably find a job as a TA or in the service industry, I would much rather spend my time brightening someone's day. My experiences doing humanitarian work in Latin America and the Middle East left me with the conviction that attitude is key to everything.
Although I do not have a car, I have a drivers license and have been driving for five years. I am comfortable driving to and from various locations.
