“I’ve always enjoyed helping people, of all ages. I was extremely close with my grandmother, and she will always remain one of the most important people in my life. Although she’d endured several personal tragedies, she always saw the glass as half full. And she loved her red lipstick! She lived her later years in a nursing home in Escondido, and I was by her side until she passed away at the age of ninety. I was always drawn to the other residents there, and wanted to help seniors grow old with dignity, with happy memories they would cherish. I love being with my clients, hearing their stories, and making them feel as special as they are. A simple smile, compassion, and understanding go a long way. I love helping them achieve their goals – no matter how big or small – and having fun while doing it.”
