Everyone desires grace through compassion and understanding. My mission is to create and foster intimate relational connections in a safe place, regardless of age.
My journey as a caregiver began in 2002 when my aunt, mentor, and biggest fan began her long battle with ovarian cancer. For the next five years, I was her caregiver, advocate, and confidant. This experience revealed my life’s true purpose of protecting and advocating for others no longer able to do so independently. Helping families manage life while walking a similar path has been an unexpected gift to me and my children.
My son was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder at age five. Raising him has better prepared me for the many daily challenges presented in our current healthcare systems. Obtaining the proper services was paramount in his overall growth and development. Continual advocacy and perseverance during his early and most difficult years proved essential for his success.
Shortly after leaving my career to raise my young family, I began caring for an elderly woman on a part-time basis. This simple “yes” unexpectedly launched my career into elder care. This calling eventually led to the founding of Ultimate Grace in 2017.
After nearly two decades of direct care experience, my role as caregiver has significantly changed. This opportunity has allowed me to advocate, educate, and protect the world’s most precious and vulnerable people .
A lifelong bond often develops between myself and family supporting their elderly loved one. Ultimate Grace begins as a healthcare support team that quickly becomes an extension of the many local families we serve.
Their continued gratitude, love and support has forever changed my heart, perspective and life.
