MEET OUR ADVISOR

Guided by discretion and deep industry knowledge, our founder provides the steady hand you need during your family’s most important transition.

Luxury Living for Seniors was started for my clients seeking exceptional living. To me, exceptional living means a community that not only looks beautiful but operates beautifully.  It's strong oversight, responsive leadership, thoughtful care-planning, well-supported staff, meaningful engagement, and a culture where residents are genuinely known and valued. True luxury is peace of mind. 

From operating nursing homes to leading sales and marketing teams at a regional level, one thing has never changed - I genuinely love matching seniors with communities that best meet their needs. At Luxury Living for Seniors, we will never settle for “good enough.” We guide clients to the best of the best. 

Outside of my professional endeavors, I wear the title of Mom, having had my first son, Brooks, in August 2025.   Being a mom and wife has provided my life the utmost fulfillment.  Beyond the joyful chaos of motherhood, I love staying active, sipping on espresso, and creating meaningful moments out of the ordinary - and I hope my clients feel that same care and intentionality.
