Senior Living Advisor, Serving: Portland, ME

Jennifer has helped over 7,000 families since 2016

About Jennifer

Jennifer’s first role in the industry dates back to her early teens when she served as a candy striper at a nearby nursing home. She has deep admiration and respect for senior citizens that began with her close relationships with her grandparents. Jennifer brings more than twenty-five years of business experience to help families grapple with financial decisions. She has helped hundreds of families make well informed choices for themselves and their loved ones.

What I'm passionate about:

I am a Maine native and grateful to be raising my family near Portland together with my husband of 26 years. Our two boys are in their teens and keep us busy with their active schedules. We love everything outdoors and our beloved rescue dog, Hope, does a great job of getting us there!

A Note From Jennifer

“I am honored to serve seniors and their families and I feel blessed to have such meaningful work. I strive to help seniors maintain as much independence as possible while offering guidance and the peace of mind that planning brings.”
