Compassionate caregiver with senior-care experience and wilderness first responder; strong in safety management and customer service.
What I'm looking for
I am a compassionate caregiver and service professional with hands-on senior-care experience and a strong background in customer service and outdoor leadership.
I hold Wilderness First Responder, Swiftwater Rescue, and Lead Belay certifications and have safely transported over 2,000 passengers while maintaining a 4.95-star rating.
As a family caregiver I provided daily care for an elderly relative, managing medications, meals, hygiene, and coordination with healthcare providers. My roles as a raft guide, ski instructor, park ranger and insurance adjuster strengthened my crisis-response, risk-management, and communication abilities.
I am dedicated to preserving dignity, comfort, and independence for those in my care and seek opportunities to apply my safety management, advocacy, and client-centered support in a collaborative environment.
