Mission: Serve aging adults as I would serve my own family—with compassion, dignity and love.

After pioneering assisted living to aging adults in Nebraska and Medicaid communities, I have spent 20 plus years in this industry. Though I have seen many changes over those years, people still want the basics of safety, security and comfort in their home. Truly making a home for over 100 Residents or a great workplace for over 50 employees goes beyond the basics. It’s about treating people like I treat my own family–going above and beyond to serve!

My personal mission: Always, always be kind. Kindness sets the tone and direction for any situation. My 16 plus years of experience in acute care and skilled nursing serving aging adults is a great foundation to oversee Resident care and supervise direct-care staff at The Lexington. It is truly a privilege to serve aging adults in their home and staff in their place of work. Though I am thrown in many different directions at the same time, my personal mission always keeps me grounded and poised to serve everyone best—leading with kindness.

My personal mission: Treat life as art. There is beauty and wonder all around us and within all of us. By taking the time to experience the art, you are always doing the most important thing at that moment. I bring over 20 years of experience in adult healthcare by providing communication, marketing and public relations support. But more importantly, I truly enjoy meeting prospective Residents and their family members. I am their resource for guiding them through the application and Medicaid processes as well as assisting with moving to their new home!

My personal mission: Love my work of serving people! It warms my heart to see them smile, listen to their story or just give them a hug. I started working in healthcare at age 14. At The Lexington, I am one of the first people you see when you visit our campus and the one of the friendly voices you hear answering the phone. In my experience, I have learned that a smile never goes out of style. I hope that the people I serve always feel welcome!

I bring over 25 years of experience in designing and implementing fun, joy and memories.

My personal mission: Serve high quality meals to our Residents who deserve the best food and high quality service! I have spent 20 years cooking up quality and tasty meals for aging adults. Part of the enjoyment of a good meal is getting to choose what you want. Our Residents select from a daily menu. Though we always have our standards, my culinary team develops seasonal menus so we are able to offer variety as well as quality. We can even accommodate low sodium, low sugar and low carb diets.
