Community Manager USA

Your favorite task

Engaging and communicating with our members. I do my best to make sure they know they are not alone and that they can use Carenity as a resource and haven where they can reach out for support, advice, or just a friendly discussion.

Your motto

Do not define yourself by possessions; the courage, strength, integrity, and honesty that you emanate into the world is far more valuable.

How do you recharge your batteries?

When I am mentally fatigued, I enjoy exercising when I can or watching a good movie or show. If I am physically and mentally fatigued... well, maybe a good drink with some "energy" in addition to the above.
