I opened the Charlotte-based geriatric care management and counseling firm, Caregiving Corner, in 2005 to assist caregivers of older adults in navigating the long-term care system and to arm them with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions when dealing with a crisis caregiving situation. As a gerontologist and nationally certified geriatric care manager, I understand the social and psychological complexities of caregiving. I have experience working with other senior care providers, so my knowledge of the aging services network in the Charlotte, NC area is extensive. Because of my expertise, I am also frequently asked to provide training to corporations who employ Baby Boomers who are juggling caregiving and careers, marketing seminars to aging-related businesses on media relations, and various types of speaking and educational events.

Specialties: Assessments, referral & placement services, family mediation, care plan development, VA benefits application assistance, Mediation application assistance, service coordination, monitoring of long-distance caregiving situations, and crisis intervention.
