My career in Senior Living began as a volunteer in Life Enrichment. This, along with caring for my mother in her last days, gave me a servant’s heart towards our seniors. In addition to my own family, which includes a new husband, 4 children and a new grandson, I now have a host of other friends and family that I am privileged to interact with at Governor’s Ridge on a daily basis. It warms my heart knowing I have been part of making someone’s day a little brighter with a smile or a kind word. We’d love to meet you here at The Ridge!

I grew up in a house where my mother was a CRNP and a college professor of nursing. Nursing has been the backbone of my life since I could walk and talk. I come to this facility with 10+ years of experience in healthcare. 8+ of those are as an LPN in Pennsylvania. My nursing background is Urgent Care, Pulmonary, and Rehabilitation Medicine. When not at work, I love to listen to Taylor Swift vinyl records and read. I also have a husband of 4 years, named Chase. I have worked with the senior population since I was 16. The senior population has a lot of knowledge and stories to tell, that intrigue me with each person I meet. I hope to bring my knowledge of nursing and my care to all your loved ones here at Governor’s Ridge. I’m excited to meet and develop a lasting relationship with each of you.

My culinary journey started over 15 years ago in the restaurant industry. I am currently working as Executive Chef at Governors Ridge.
I’ve been known for my innovative approach to Southern Cuisine. I’ve honed my skills in some of Texas and Tennessee’s top kitchens, including Fly By Night Cattle Co. and Christina’s American Table.
My passion for flavor and presentation has earned me multiple awards, including “Best Steaks“ (Restaurant Guru) and “Bite of the season” (The Texas Bucket List)
Beyond the kitchen, I am a musician and father of 4 with a strong belief that we can all be brought together by the power of food and create memorable dining experiences for the ones we cook for.

It all started with my mom. Working beside her in home healthcare and housekeeping for nearly a decade I realized, despite how I loved serving others, I also desired to pursue a career where I can utilize my creative side. After seven years in cosmetology, I wanted to go back to my roots in healthcare. I started off as a caregiver at Governor’s Ridge, but soon afterwards the activities department opened up and that’s where I found my perfect fit. I have so much fun providing a way for the residents here to express themselves in their own artistic ways. There is nothing more beautiful to me than seeing their laughter. I have truly found fulfillment as a life enrichment director, a caregiver, and most important, a friend to the people that call Governor’s Ridge home.

Bethany Cobb – I began working at Governor’s Ridge as a caregiver my senior year in high school (2007) and have fallen in love with the senior population. I transitioned to Assistant Care Director and eventually into Administrative Assistant. When not at work, I am raising my 5 year old son, caring for my mom and spending as much time as I can outdoors. My goal is making our residents’ lives better every day. It may be a hug, helping with their electronic questions or talking to their families. I am ready and willing to meet their needs, whatever it may be.
