Laura Franklin

Degreed Professional Manager

I was born and raised in California. I have lived in Sacramento, San Francisco, Marysville and was raised in Yuba City. While in California I attended College at San Mateo and Yuba College and later attended and graduated from Lederwolf Culinary Academy. I moved to Missouri after my parents and sister moved here. My family unit is strong, and I have been privileged to have my three children able to grow up next door to their grandparents, riding horses, gardening and raising animals. I have worked in this field for many years as a Direct Support Professional, a House manager, and my most recent profession of a Degreed Professional Manager. Working for Palmer's Home Care and providing support and care for individuals with disabilities has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. The relationships I have built with our Individuals, staff, and colleagues have become like a second family. Mentoring and providing an environment to help people succeed is a wonderful purpose to have in a career.
