About Joan

Joan or “Joanie” as she prefers to be called has firsthand experience finding a community for a loved one as she went through the experience with her mom just a few years ago. After spending several years working in marketing and sales she wanted to use her compassion and experience to help families find that special place for their loved ones.

What I'm passionate about:

I enjoy keeping busy and travel as much as I can. I hope one day to visit all 50 states. I love going to concerts and have been to hundreds of them. Nothing will ever top when I met my favorite singer of all time, Barry Manilow. I also love shopping and going to the movies but most of all, I like spending time with my family and friends.

A Note From Joan

I like helping people and am excited to start working with you and your family. I understand what you are going through as I have been there. I am here to help you find the perfect community for your loved one. I will be with you throughout this whole process and my goal is have you loved one settled in, happy and content.
