I am a patient and peaceful person. I seek harmony with all. I am a creative personality who loves making jewelry, embroidery, reading books, being in nature and being grateful. I love to learn- period. I have been working in Port Townsend as a caregiver for 5 years with a local company. Due to changing needs I am now working for myself hoping to integrate caregiving with my jewelry business and online work from home. I have worked with various conditions such as Parkinson's disease, Polio, Dementia, acute pain and Arthritis. mostly with elderly folks. I am more than willing to work with different age groups. Depending on my capability and your needs. I also spent 6 years as a mental health tech at an assisted living facility for schizophrenic and special needs folks.
