After decades working in retail and the automotive industry and looking for a change, my mother said to me one day, “The older population of people gravitate to you and you to them, you need to figure it out and work with them and for them somehow.”  She passed away later that day. With my mom’s recommendation in mind, I packed up and moved to – where else – but Florida, home to many seniors.

That is when my career working in senior living began. As in my other positions, I enjoyed educating individuals on the “why?” of their decision — whether it’s a car or a Continuing Care Retirement Community or Life Plan Community.

The “why” is not about moving out of your home to a senior community, it’s about making the decision to secure your future health care needs and have a safety net for your future. I love what I do, helping hundreds of people make the most important decision about their future … and I’m not done yet!
