Living happier, longer

Gerontology is the holistic study of aging.  Mind. Body. Spirit.  Gerontologists help individuals and families navigate fragmented healthcare systems, financial challenges, isolation and loneliness and more.  

All of these are barriers to our best elderhood and I can help identify resources and create a plan that connects the dots.  My goal is to help you be your best advocate.

Aging is a gift that is denied to many.  Let's work together to chart a path and plan for your best elderhood! 

 I have a Master's Degree in Gerontology and a Doctorate in Education, both from Virginia Commonwealth University.  I am also a Certified Dementia Practitioner with over a decade of experience working with older adults, caregivers and healthcare professionals.

Colleagues and I are available to make presentations on a variety of topics.  Continuing Education, Educational Seminars, Interactive Team Building...we can do it!   Brain Health, Social Connections, Nutrition, Person-Centered Care in Challenging Environments.  These are just a few of the topics on which we are able to present.

Most of the questions I receive are related to a fear of memory loss.  Even at advanced age, MOST older adults will never experience memory loss that significantly impacts activities of daily living.  But let's talk through it and let me share the facts about dementia and aging.  Meanwhile, have a look at the pillars of Brain Health!
