I genuinely enjoy connecting with both our Care Pros and clients, and I find great fulfillment in matching the right Care Pro with each client's unique needs. I treat every client and Care Pro with the same care and respect I would give my own family. Outside of work, I cherish spending time with my family, especially my two wonderful grandchildren. I also enjoy fishing and relaxing at the beach.

I'm originally from England but I'm now a proud American and I celebrate 10 years of being a US Citizen in October. I love living in North Carolina as we have everything here from mountains to the sea, its my perfect place. I love to read and also to spend time outside (but only when it's warm! I hate the cold!) I love to travel and I'm always the first in the car for a road trip. I love to cook and particularly like to cook Indian food as my family are big fans.
