I’ve worn a lot of hats at The Village. I started in our administrative office in 2006 but soon happily accepted the opportunity to learn and grow as Director of Resident Services. In that role, I discovered a passion to provide quality care to those living with dementia.
My next role was as the original Director of Asa’s Neighborhood, our Memory Care community. It was an immense honor but also a major endeavor to get it up and running in 2014. As the Director, it was my job to obtain licensure, develop policies and procedures, secure and train employees, and kick off the initial marketing for our 16-apartment neighborhood.
In 2016, I became The Village’s Executive Director, coming full circle back to our administrative office. I’m proud of our community and my staff every day who make The Village so special (one reason we were honored with the Chamber of Commerce’s Business of the Year Award).
As a Franklin native, I love the relaxing, peaceful tone of our town, while having access to more metropolitan areas only a short distance away. When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family, going to local auctions and experimenting with gardening. I am a member of the Franklin Baptist Church, a Relay for Life Event Leader, and a member of the WWW (Words, Women and Wine) Book Club.
