Meet Our Team

Kelly Neuharth began her career in communications, human resources, and office administration before taking a position as Office Manager in an assisted living community 11 years ago.  Senior Living is where she discovered her true passion: she loved working with the residents and working with their families.  For the first time, she truly enjoyed coming to work.  Her love for the elderly as grown, and she firmly believes this is where the Lord has placed her.   From Office Manager, she assumed a role as a Senior Business Office Director, supporting eight other communities.  From there, the Lord led her to another assisted living as the Executive Director where she has worked for almost five years.  As an Executive Director, she’s committed to caring for the residents and their families and being a part of a team.
