About Shawna

Shawna’s experience in the senior industry includes time as a Director of Dining Services, Director of Sales, and Director of Independent Living. Her service to this industry spans 10 years with time spent on all levels of care including working in assisted living, memory care and continuing care retirement communities.

What I'm passionate about:

Faith, family, and food. I am a certified chef so I am always happiest in the kitchen. I dedicate most of my spare time to spoiling my grandchildren and my rescue dogs Izzybelle and Pepe.

A Note From Shawna

“I find my joy when I have helped others find peace. Navigating senior living can be an overwhelming experience. My goal is to guide you through the process, empower you with information and choices, and support you each step of the way.”
