I have cared for a 90 yr old artist through her last year of life challenged by alzheimers and lewy body dementia plus both my parents through early to end stage Alzheimer's w/ mobility, vision and cancer issues. My humor helps me ease stressful situations and get along with diverse personalities. I bring medical advocacy and complimentary medicine experience with strong critical thinking/problem avoidance/solving skills developed in my past professional and personal life. I love cooking for clients and friends, putting my chef background to work. I have patience, honesty and integrity.

Laurie was with my 90 year old Mom with Alzheimer's. She is skilled with people and very thoughtful. She knew how to read my mom and what she needed. She was a great help with prepping, cooking and providing delicious fresh nutrition. She took mom on outings to see beautiful things. She stimulated and encouraged her to do artwork. Laurie was also good with difficult family members and showed her diplomacy and respect at all times.
