Personal Background
Originally from West Africa, I became a U.S. citizen in 1998. I am multilingual, speaking English, French (my first language), basic Russian, and Bambara. I enjoy word search puzzles, exploring international cooking, and spending time with my two dogs, Chico and Lola.
Professional Experience and Motivation
My journey as a caregiver began when my husband was diagnosed with Alzheimerโs. I cared for him until his passing, after which my children encouraged me to use my caregiving skills professionally. I have since trained as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). I often hum or whistle while I work; in fact, I currently have a client who enjoys dancing to Frank Sinatra while I perform my duties.
Commitment to Veterans
I believe it is a profound honor to provide care and dignity to our nationโs veterans. I am deeply moved by their selflessness and the sacrifices they have made, and I am dedicated to supporting them through high-quality care.
Thank you, Kadiatou for being the best part of Simplicity!
