Hi! - I'm a Medical Assistant II at CHOC Children’s Hospital of Orange County, that has been in the medical field for over 20 years. I do have my BLS, including first aid and special training in choking in children. I love kiddos of all ages and believe that each child is unique and that the care should be just as unique. What worked for one, might not work for another, and that's when being creative comes in handy. I'm also extremely patient, out-going and optimistic. I love spending time outdoors and getting some fresh air. I also enjoy cooking, experimenting only with healthy dishes and getting creative with "presentation", thanks to Pinterest, hehe. Children are such a Blessing and so much fun! They make the day worth livin'......
