Chief People Officer
"'Acts of service always extend beyond your reach’ is a legacy passed down from generation to generation in my family. I inherited my appetite to serve others from my parents. They were not known in society at large; however, they were well known where it mattered most — in the communities where they lived. While my parents are not with me today, the legacy of community and service they instilled in me manifests in all aspects of my life. They are with me daily, encouraging me and cheering me on to maximize my potential. My parents benefited from Medicaid and Medicare services that included home nursing and adult day care as illness limited their ability to live full lives. It is why I am excited to join ConcertoCare and seek to continue making contributions to society beyond my reach."
