She has been in the healthcare industry since 1992. Joy started off in home care and then decided to go to school and receive her CNA certificate that planted her a job in a convalescent hospital in Capitola, California. She worked there for a few years and then moved on to an Assisted Living in Scotts Valley, California. Joy stayed in the Assisted Living environment until having some health issues which then lead her to cosmetology school where she received her nail technician’s license. She worked as a nail tech for some time but soon realized that she missed health care.  This is when she made the decision to move to Oregon where she applied at a facility as a Med tech. Joy worked there for a couple of years and then applied at a Behavioral facility for seniors and people with disabilities here in the valley where she started off as a Caregiver but found herself moving positions rapidly within the company. Med-tech, Admin assistant and Activity Director/Social Services. Then she started going to college for a Human Service degree. While at this facility Joy was part of the OTAC pilot program for Behavior support. She was at this facility for many years until she received a position with Woollard Ipsen Management as a behavioral consultant in 2012. In 2014 she graduated with an Associates of Arts degree in Human Service management.

In her spare time, Joy loves spending time with her grandkids, cooking, baking, DIYing, singing, dancing, making candles and body care items. Hanging out listening to music, shopping and much more.

Some of Joy’s favorite foods include fruit salad, pizza, green salad, bagels, Chinese and Mexican food.  She collects mermaids in any shape, form or fashion. This is the only thing she collects as she is not a trinket-type person. (She does not like clutter or dusting) LOL!
