I am the Director at Riverview Terrace Assisted Living.

With a profound dedication to compassionate care and a background in sales and service, I have found my true calling in the healthcare field, particularly in Assisted Living. For me, assisting and caring for individuals in need of support is not just a profession; it's a deeply rewarding vocation.

In my career, I have honed exceptional communication and interpersonal skills. Interacting with residents and their families requires more than just medical expertise: it necessitates empathy, patience and an unwavering commitment to addressing tenants needs and concerns.  These skills are invaluable in the healthcare field, especially when engaging with residents and their families. I understand the importance of being empathetic, patient, and attentive to the needs and concerns of those under my care.

Outside of my professional life, my heart lies with my family. I am a proud parent of three wonderful children and a grandparent to four lovely grandchildren. The joy and support they bring into my life inspire and motivate me in my work in the healthcare industry. I firmly believe in the significance of family bonds and the profound responsibility of providing the best care to those who are an integral part of someone's family.

To maintain a healthy work-life balance, I indulge in the serenity of nature and water. Kayaking and boating activities provide me with the much-needed relaxation and rejuvenation, which are vital in the demanding field of healthcare.

In essence, my background and interests have perfectly aligned to create a fulfilling career in Assisted Living and the broader healthcare field.
