Providing education, training, skills and resources, so care partners may be confident in knowing that they have prepared themselves with the right tools to honor their loved one during this journey. I am an Independent Dementia Care Consultant with a bachelor's degree in Human Ecology from the University of Tennessee. After losing three family members to dementia and walking this journey with my
mother, I chose to take a leap of faith and follow my passion to ensure that no family faces this alone. I am a volunteer with local Alzheimer's organizations and a dedicated advocate for families living with dementia. My most rewarding experience is serving in an adult day program where I am able to see first-hand how important it is for those living with dementia to remain socially active and engaged. I strive to make our local communities more dementia friendly in order to provide better support for the person with dementia and their care team. My mission is to walk side by side with families, help them navigate through the challenging times and show them that they can still find hope, faith and joy in each day. My Certifications...
