Meghan’s Bio
Hi there! My name is Meg and I am an empathetic and kind individual looking for some part time hours as a care companion.
I presently work for a reforestation nonprofit full time remotely as a global project specialist, and am excited about this role as it encompasses my personal passion toward the environment and sustainability. Prior to this, I am a recent graduate of Penn State University. I excelled throughout my lower and upper level education, receiving Dean's List most semesters and a cumulative GPA of 3.7.
While I don't hold much professional experience in companion care, I believe you'll find my resume reflects my ability to build strong interpersonal relationships and community building skills that will enable me to be an excellent care companion.
Prior to college, I worked as a Lifeguard, then Lead Lifeguard, for 4+ years. In that role, I cultivated advanced surveillance abilities, attentiveness and CPR, AED and First Aid training. While at PennState, I was a Resident Assistant, overseeing 100+ students a semester and serving as a conflict mediator, personal and academic resource, community builder and above all else, a role model to ensure everyone had a safe, positive and healthy experience in and outside of the residence halls. I also served as Secretary for Sunny State, a student-led organization dedicated to spreading kindness through volunteering, partnering with non-profits such as Habitat for Humanity and the Pregnancy Resource Clinic (both located in State College, PA). As secretary, I was fostered membership through serving as club liaison, organizing and hosting recruiting events and serving as main point of contact for questions and concerns.
Overall, I consider myself an empathic leader. I develop deep connections and have superb communication and community building skills that I believe will transfer well into a role as a care companion. I am also caring and compassionate and a very good listener. I hope to be able to showcase these traits with your loved one and help take care of them and make their days even more meaningful! If you have any questions, or would like to hear more about why I am qualified, please do not hesitate to reach out. My cell is 570-269-5908 and email is meghandanny5585@gmail.com.
