Care Philosophy: My mission has always been to provide women with a listening ear. Communication is key.

I attempt to treat those that I interact with in the same manner that I would want to be treated. I thoroughly enjoy my profession and I hope that I am able to transmit this enthusiasm the majority of the time.
