My Inspiration

The path of becoming a senior placement advisor came after I navigated finding a memory care facility for my mother who had been diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease. I attempted this process on my own and then, after the placement ended up not working out, I obtained the service of a senior placement advisor.

Obtaining an advisor made a huge difference! I was exposed to a variety of living facilities that I wasn't even aware existed when I tried to place my mother on my own. It was such a positive experience, I knew that I wanted to build a career where I could give this type of service to others who are going through a similar situation.

I love meeting seniors, their families and working with facility staff. I understand the anxiety and concern of trying to find just the right place. This is so much more than a career for me. This is my passion and brings me great fulfillment. You don't have to find placement for your loved one on your own. I am happy to assist you.

This photo was taken at the Walk to End Alzheimer's event in Sacramento in the fall of 2016. The special lady in between my brother and me is our mom, Lisa. She has been through so much in the past few years. Through it all, it has been a comfort having her placed in a loving and attentive environment. Knowing that she is well cared for when we are not around has brought much peace through a challenging time of transition and concern.
