“The world is before you, and you need not take it or leave it as it was when you came in.” James Baldwin

Angelina lives her day-to-day life inspired by the quote by James Baldwin. Angelina does not take life for granted, and her passion and purpose for making the world better led her to the senior industry over twenty years ago. Growing up in the military service, bouncing around to wherever her father was stationed, Angelina developed a great appreciation for culture, diversity, and history.

Angelina was introduced to caregiving as a young girl when her great grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s at the age of 80. Every weekend Angelina and her family cared for her grandmother and loved her. Angelina’s first job was in the kitchen in a nursing home. She knew this was her purpose and attended Chaffey college and became certified as an Activity Director. She studied gerontology and sociology at Crafton Hills college.

Angelina says, “I am blessed with the opportunities to hear the life stories, the advice, the encouragement, and the inspiration which has molded me to who I am now. I am grateful to be here at Wildwood Canyon Villa where I can be a part of a community where like minds meet daily to love, care for, learn from and grow as a united family."

Pricilla and her husband have two beautiful daughters and five handsome sons. On her days off she enjoys watching her boys play football, and her daughter in gymnastics.

Pricilla says, “I have worked with Wildwood Canyon Villa for over four years and I love every part of my job. I love all my residents and love to work with all my co-workers."

Randee has filled many roles at Wildwood Canyon Villa, including Caregiver and Med-Tech. With a desire to further her education, Randee became certified as a Nursing Assistant and graduated from Beaumont Adult School as a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN).

Randee says, “I love helping my residents every day and I can’t see myself doing anything else.”

"Currently, I am the Dining Services Director at Wildwood Canyon Villa since 2016. I have a passion for food and creativity that has played a big role in my life. I've been cooking for over 15 years, and I have had the opportunity to work at great food chains and with very talented chefs.

I grew up in Orange County, C.A. I graduated from Mountain View H.S., and attended Rancho Santiago College. My first job was working at the Boys and Girls Club of Santa Ana where I included fun in my daily work ethic. That lead me to a job with the City of Santa Ana Parks and Recreation, where I worked with kids at risk, by providing after school and weekend activities.

In 2005, I moved to Yucaipa where I worked cooking and managing restaurants. It has been a great career. I do what I love.

I have made it my personal goal to always extend my culinary experience to bring my creativity and my talents to the table also to provide the best flavors and presentation to achieve an excellent meal."

Pat has four children and fourteen grandchildren. Pat says, “I enjoy working with seniors-coming to work every day brings great joy to me as every day is so special and every resident is so unique.”

On her days off Pat spends time with her grandchildren at the casino and going to the movie theater.
