Dependable & Capable
“I have had the privilege of working alongside Carissa and witnessing the heart, humility, and strength she brings to every interaction. She embodies compassion, integrity… Whether navigating complex situations or simply offering a listening ear, Carissa carries the kind of steady presence that creates safety, trust, and hope.
What stands out most is her ability to see people through the lens of redemption—not defined by what they’ve been through, but by the purpose and value God has placed on their lives.
She is not only dependable and capable, but deeply rooted in her faith, and brings that grounding into every aspect of her care for others.”
