Terra’s Bio

I'm an educated professional with a BIG heart. I have my MBA from Baylor University, my CPR/AED/BLS certification from the America Heart Association, and my LVN nursing license–in good standing–with the state of Texas. After 17 years of nursing professionally, I now practice my clinical skills at a voluntary capacity with medical mission teams abroad. I'm also a volunteer ombudsman with the Senior Source in Dallas, a nonprofit organization that is partnered with the Texas Health & Human Services to preserve and empower the rights of seniors/older adults.

For Care Companionship: My half-day and full-day rates are per person and include transportation fees, paid customized activities based on client's interest, engaging companionship, and covered meals with dietary restrictions considered. Half-day is typically 4-6 hours, and full day is 7-10 hours. I also have a valid US passport and able to escort/chaperone loved ones on domestic or international medical tourism travel. Please message me personally for availability, terms & conditions, and rates for any travel care services.
