My name is Karissa. I work part-time as a registered dietitian, and I am looking for a side gig for extra income. I am a self-motivated hard worker who loves to help others. As you might guess from my career choice, I love to cook. I am also a very neat and tidy person. I keep my apartment spotless and I am sure I could do the same for you. I also love animals - especially dogs. In addition to all this, I have my own car, with a clean driving record. I am multi-talented - let me know how I could help out you or your family today. P. S. I am the lady in the middle in my profile picture :)
