  • Description

    Hi, my name is Jessica, but I like to go by "Jessie". I live in beautiful Washington State, USA, where I've worked in the administrative field and as an independent caregiver. I've always had a deep passion for helping people. I enjoy working with children, whose creativity and imagination keep me energized and inspired. I've also benefitted from working with seniors whose life experiences, advice, and stories fascinate me.

    My caring nature, sense of humor, and friendly demeanor have helped me build strong connections with those I work with, whether in a professional setting or as a caregiver.

    In addition to my work, I’ve always had a dream of traveling the world, and I’m just beginning to make that dream a reality. For the past 20 years, Ireland has been at the top of my travel list, because of its stunning landscapes and famously friendly people. I love discovering new cultures, trying new foods, and learning about the different traditions that make our world so interesting.

    When I’m not working, you’ll find me enjoying simple pleasures like reading a good book, crafting, going on walks outdoors, or watching funny movies. I’m also an animal lover and enjoy spending time with pets whenever I can.

    My driving desire is to make a positive impact, whether that’s through my work, the relationships I build, or the ways I contribute to my community. I enjoy volunteering by reaching out to isolated elderly individuals and keeping them company, assisting in the local food banks, and helping at animal shelters. I’m always excited about the opportunity to grow, connect, and continue helping others in meaningful ways.

    I'm very excited for my next adventure and welcome it with open arms!
