About Tucson Senior Placement

|
I started my career in senior living working at a free-standing Memory Care community and began my study of Alzheimer's/Dementia. I was then promoted to a larger community specializing in Assisted Living and Memory Care. My next step was as a Sales & Marketing Director at a privately owned community that offered Independent, Assisted Living and Secured Memory Care.
After working in the senior living industry for a few years I realized that choosing a community is overwhelming for families and that there was a great need for professionals who could ease the process by helping people navigate the various options and provide resources to assist them in their decision, I started my business, Tucson Senior Placement in January of 2017.
In addition to volunteering for the Alzheimer's Association I have volunteered for The Alzheimer's Research and Prevention Foundation. This non-profit organization is dedicated to preventing Alzheimer's disease by funding research studies, providing educational outreach and memory screenings. They believe that memory loss is neither a normal nor natural part of aging and they teach Alzheimer's prevention. https://www.alzheimersprevention.org
I have volunteered for the Tucson Fire Department's TC-3 Task Force. This is a collaboration between Tucson Medical Center and Tucson Fire. Their mission is to reduce and prevent 9-1-1 calls through active resource connection with local community-based organizations. This effort allows Tucson Fire to maintain system reliability and keep units in service for time sensitive calls. I have a Level One Fingerprint Clearance Card and all of my immunizations are current.

Originally from Northern New Jersey, I've lived in Tucson for 24 years. I currently reside in the Civano area (SE Tucson) and love it! I have a son who is a Freshman at Northern Arizona University. We were active in the scouting program for 11 years and are former members of Troop 747 at Corpus Christi Church in Tanque Verde. My son Carson received his Eagle Scout rank in the Spring of 2022. I have a cat who I adopted in 2012 from a woman who had dementia and could no longer take care of her. I also adopted a stray dog who was abandoned in my neighborhood in August of 2023.
My passion is helping families make the transition from their home to a comfortable, clean, friendly and safe environment. Selecting the right living situation is a "process" and I will walk you thru the steps to ensure that your selection is the right option not only for you, but for your entire family. I am your advocate and I feel very blessed to help families on their journey!
I was born in upstate NY (Dunkirk, a suburb of Buffalo) and moved to Vernon, NJ at age 4. I attended Montclair State University and then worked for 5 years in New York City for Lancome in their corporate offices and then was an Assistant Buyer for Saks Fifth Avenue in their flagship store on 5th Avenue in Rockefeller Square in NY. Following that I had a career in advertising with Gannett Newspapers and they transferred me to Tucson Newspapers at a Manager of Major and National Accounts in June of 2000. I started working in the senior living industry in 2012.
