About Me
Senior Advisor | Healthcare & Senior Transitions Specialist
As a Senior Advisor (SA) with over 30 years of executive healthcare leadership experience and 20 years as a licensed real estate professional specializing in senior transitions, I offer invaluable aging transitions support. My unique cross-sector perspective integrates clinical operations expertise, senior healthcare navigation, housing strategy, and relocation management into a comprehensive advisory framework tailored for aging adults and their families.
With three decades of leading high-acuity Emergency Room operations, I possess advanced expertise in crisis management, discharge planning, interdisciplinary coordination, regulatory compliance, and patient-centered care delivery. This clinical and operational foundation uniquely enhances the SA role, enabling informed guidance through complex healthcare, housing, and life-transition decisions.
I combine my healthcare systems knowledge with real estate and relocation strategy to assist seniors during hospitalization, downsizing, assisted living placement, memory care transitions, and asset management decisions. I am recognized for mitigating risk, improving care continuity, reducing readmissions, and protecting families from costly or emotionally driven decision-making as a senior relocation specialist.
I serve as a trusted authority, bridging healthcare providers, senior living communities, legal professionals, and family caregivers to ensure safe, dignified, and well-coordinated transitions.
