Through it all, Pops was stubborn about many things but one thing in particular: he wanted to stay in his own home, on his own terms. So that became my job, building the support around him so his choice could actually work: the appointments, the repairs, the small daily things that let him keep living his way. We brought in wonderful CNAs and sitters who handled the medications, the chores, the physical therapy, all the things that kept him safe. But the ones he loved most weren't the ones checking tasks off a list. They were the ones who just sat with him, played cards, watched TV together, and kept him company. That taught me something I'll never forget: care isn't only about tasks done correctly, it's about being seen as a person, not a patient.
Near the end, he told me, 'I should have known you had it all figured out, baby.' I didn't, not really. I was figuring it out as I went, the way most families do. But that's exactly why I started this business, so other families don't have to figure it out alone.
Why I do this work
Before I ever coordinated care for my dad, I spent years coordinating people, budgets, and moving parts. I started out as a program coordinator for a graduate school, where my proudest work was running sponsorship events: managing very large budgets, keeping multiple vendors on schedule, and looking after guests who had traveled from around the world. For more than ten years since, I've worked as a recruiter, which means I've spent my career listening carefully to people, understanding what they really need, and finding the right match.
Caring for my dad
Then I did it for my own family. For eight years, I was the one coordinating my dad's care, right up until he passed away in 2026: the appointments, the specialists, the insurance questions, the home support, and the calls when something changed. I'm not a nurse or a medical provider, and I won't pretend to be. But I learned how the medical world actually works from the family side, and I learned who to call, what to ask, and how to keep everyone on the same page.
What I bring to your family
That's what I bring to your family: the organization of a professional coordinator and the heart of someone who has been in your shoes. I live right here in the Selbyville area, so when your parent needs someone, I'm a short drive away, not a plane ride.
