After more than 20 years optimizing healthcare systems at the federal level, I turned my focus to where it matters most — the individual. I've seen how systems fail seniors, and I've dedicated my career to building something different.
With a Master of Science - Geriatric Care Management from the University of Florida and a Gerontology background from USF, I combine rigorous academic training with real-world systems thinking. My work is rooted in a simple belief: seniors deserve proactive, dignified care — not reactive crisis management.
I work directly with seniors and their families in the Tampa Bay area and remotely, helping them build the foundations for long-term independence through movement, nutrition, fall prevention, and whole-health navigation.

Prevention-First Philosophy
Movement · Nutrition · Whole-health navigation
Independent aging isn't accidental. It's built on three interconnected foundations — each one reinforcing the others. My work addresses all three, together.
Muscle strength and balance are the most powerful predictors of healthy aging. I help seniors build and maintain the physical foundation that keeps them independent — through evidence-based movement strategies, fall-risk reduction, and collaboration with physical therapists.
Nutrition is medicine. I guide seniors and their families through the evidence on protein intake, hydration, micronutrient needs, and the relationship between diet and cognition — translating research into practical, sustainable daily habits.
The healthcare system is complex and often fragmented. I serve as your guide — coordinating between providers, translating medical language, identifying gaps in care, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. You focus on living; I track the rest.
“The goal is not to add years to life — it's to add life to years. Prevention is how we do that.”
