This is the second in a series of interview-style profiles of the hard-working and compassionate Caregivers on the FirstLight Home Care of West Suburban Boston and Boston-Back Bay Caregiver Team.
How long have you been with FirstLight Home Care?
I started working with FirstLight Home Care 7 years ago.
Who inspired you to pursue the career you have today?
Caring for my mother inspired me to have the career I have today. I come from a family where we look after our elders. I cared for her for many years and through that experience, I learned that I’m very passionate about helping her and other elderly.
What’s something about you (a fun fact) that not many people know?
When I’m not working my hobby is to knit and make body mist for my friends and families. I’m shy around big crowds and also during public speaking I tend to forget everything I had to say when I see a full crowd of people.
What do you like most about what you do at FirstLight Home Care?
I love the variety of work. I love how everyone in the office shares the same vision and the whole team works together to make things happen. I love to help improve the lives of the geriatric population. I love providing companionship.
