Kennedy high school with honors. I started working my last year in high school, down the street at Papa Murphy's. I worked there for two years but then switching into in home care because I received my CNA License from the MVROP program while in high school. My first job in this field was actually for my great grandma, she was my neighbor and started needing help with all different daily tasks. From there I went up through various jobs. My family has always been a big part of my life, I live with my mom and two brothers but have a lot of family living right in Fremont as well, so we area always getting together for birthday parties or bbqs. I would have to say my dislikes and likes would be, I love bowling, hanging out with my friends and family and trying new things, going to the movies, reading, getting my nails done, and going new places. But my dislikes would have to be, messy rooms, disorganization, rude people, lazy people, and unfair situations. As a worker I feel I have a lot to bring to the company, I am very strict on myself with being on time and being organized in everything I do. But even though I may be strict on myself I make the effort to be positive and be bubbly because having a positive attitude reflects on my work and the people around me.       Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Yes  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Christian        Work Experience & Education Background   3 years experience, 3 references At two times, on different occasions I worked with elderly, first was live in care where my aunt hired me to live with her mother, my great grandma, Monday through Friday, performing any care as needed.
