Hello! I grew up in Southern Oregon. However, I spent many summers on our family farm outside of Salem, Oregon, where I helped take care of my grandparents in their later years. I graduated from Oregon State University with a Bachelor of Science in Business and Health Care Administration. Straight from college, I started my long-term care journey – working as an Assisted Living Activity Director, Skilled Nursing Social Service Director, Assisted Living/Home Care Administrator, and, most recently, Home Health Community Specialist. I loved working as a liaison, helping gather health information from all spectrums of care in order to get the client the services they needed.
I live in a small country town east of Salem with my husband, John, our 3 girls (including twins!), and our Golden Retriever, Penny. We love the country life and are fortunate to be near lots of family. We love all seasons that Oregon offers, mostly summertime with camping adventures, weekends to the beach, and enjoying quiet summer evenings at home.
I am eager to be a Senior Living Advisor, working with great knowledgeable team members. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to work alongside families and their loved ones, ensuring the best possible transition. I bring experience and compassion to this role and I am excited to serve my community by offering this rewarding service to seniors.
