My family and my faith, tennis, gardening, sports and helping professionals and the families they serve to find the appropriate senior care.
"Finding the best care for seniors can be overwhelming and intimidating for families. Having worked in senior healthcare over 25 years, and now with A Place for Mom for over 11 years, I have the privilege of assisting more than 11,000 families, as well as knowing and working with many dedicated professionals in the “senior provider” field. One thing we all have in common is a passion to serve seniors and assist them in having the highest quality of life possible. We are rewarded from knowing our work is meaningful to so many people. I love working with the social workers, discharge planners, case managers, physicians, elder law attorneys, senior financial advisors and the many other service people who help the elderly. There is energy, drive, and compassion that is unmatched in other professions. Helping families to find the best care and needed resources while offering patience, understanding and knowledge is extremely rewarding to my team at A Place for Mom."
