A steady hand for life's daily details

I worked as a caregiver early in my career, trained as a physician, and then ran large teams and budgets as a biotech project manager. Later, I transitioned to become a nonprofit founder and fundraiser. Now, my work is dedicated to supporting seniors to live more fully. I'm good at diving into the details and zooming out to see the big picture.

I started Anchor & Ally because too many older adults wanted to age in place but were quietly struggling with life's administrative details: paperwork, appointments, confusing statements, and financial worry — especially without family nearby to help. My promise is simple: patient, respectful help, at your pace, always with your goals and your independence in mind.

In addition to helping seniors with administrative tasks, I love being a thought partner and sounding board for what matters to you. I live in Mill Valley with my husband, teenage son, and wild dog. You might see me on the Mt. Tam trails, hanging out at the Depot, or speaking at a Toastmasters meeting.
