Caregivers may work any or all shifts, with highly flexible scheduling.

$20 per shower session (30–60 minutes)

About Me:

I (29F) work in nonprofit business administration for the arts and healthcare; I myself am an artist, musician, and published screenwriter. I do not wear a badge of stress around the disability. I am a human living life in an injured body that now requires the helpful hands of others to sustain. In 2020 I was hit by a car alongside four others while walking across a crosswalk. It was my senior year of college and I’m still trying to figure out so much to be fully participate to in society. Someone died and I was paralyzed from the chest down but I still work and go to school and make everything beautiful happen around me with a complex injury.
