Meet Your Local Hallmark Owner:

My love of spending time with aging adults goes all the way back to my childhood. My parents worked in a long-term care facility, and I grew up watching them care for and support people in the later stages of life. I saw firsthand how something as simple as a conversation, a helping hand, or a smile could make a meaningful difference in someone’s day. Those experiences stayed with me and shaped my passion for serving aging adults throughout my life.

I’ve always had a propensity for numbers, so I earned an accounting degree and became a CPA. While working at my dream accounting job at a nonprofit agency, I found myself volunteering at a nursing facility, visiting residents who had few or no family members nearby. I realized that my heart was pulling me toward a different kind of work. That realization led me back to school, where I earned my degree in Occupational Therapy.

As a geriatric Occupational Therapist, I developed a particular interest in dementia care, and I especially enjoyed working with people in their homes. Over the years, I began to see that skilled therapy alone was often not enough to help some older adults remain safe and independent at home. Many needed additional day-to-day support that families sometimes struggled to provide on their own.

I also saw how much comfort and fulfillment could come from allowing people to remain in the familiar surroundings of their own homes. These experiences, combined with my long-standing desire to build a business centered around helping others, ultimately led me to Hallmark Homecare.

The Hallmark Homecare approach is unique in that it connects families with experienced, compassionate caregivers through a direct-hire relationship. This can provide families with greater control and continuity while allowing the caregivers on the registry to earn competitive compensation. Most importantly, it creates an opportunity for aging adults to receive personalized support while remaining as independent as possible in the place they call home.

My background gives me a unique perspective when helping families navigate their care needs. Having worked across the continuum of care and specialized in geriatric occupational therapy and dementia care, I understand the questions that need to be asked and the qualities that matter when choosing a caregiver.

My goal with Hallmark Homecare of Lexington is to be a trusted advisor and resource for families. I want every family I work with to feel heard, supported, and confident that their loved one has the compassionate, capable, and dependable care they deserve.
