It has been my pleasure to serve the local community since August 2018 when I initially joined the PACE family as the Enrollment Specialist. I graduated in 2016 from Baker College with my Bachelor’s Degree. I then decided to further my education by pursuing my Master’s Degree in Gerontology, where I was able to focus my studies even more on the older adult population & the aging process. In 2019 I completed my degree path & graduated from Capella University. After graduating & before joining PACE, I have had the opportunity to work in various Human Services settings, including senior centers, adult day care, and the Disability Network.
