I enjoy the residents here at Elliott Place, and look forward each day to being a part of the community. I have a passion for cooking and baking. I have found that cooking has given me lots of personal satisfaction. I have been working in food service for most of my life Country Clubs, Hotels, Healthcare, and Retirement settings. My wife and myself like gardening, camping, and many other outdoor activities. We also have two adult children, and enjoy spending time with them.

I approach each new challenge with empathy, compassion and dedication and as a Resident Advocate promote quality and confidence by focusing on the welfare of residents and peace of mind for their loved ones. My friendly and outgoing personality allows me to guide residents and families through the challenges of Senior Living by offering information and options, as well as a sympathetic ear.  My husband is a KC firefighter, and I have four children and four grandchildren. I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, photography, shooting, drag racing, and am a member of Boy Scouts of America.
