About Carlene F.
I am an experienced Live in Carer with 5 years experience working with clients with a range of medical conditions. My background in Customer Services and personal experience caring for a family member compelled me to transition my career into care. I enjoy reading ancient and modern philosophy and biographies relevant to political revolutions. I also enjoy traveling and exploring different cultures to challenge my own
beliefs in order to understand people from all walks of life. I am also very passionate about art and fashion, which is one of my most creative past times when I have a chance to indulge in the two. I enjoy actives such swimming, boxing and basketball, as well as socialising with friends and family.
