| Introduction | I am a Certified Senior Advisor and member of the Society of Certified Senior Advisors, an organization that keeps professionals abreast of health, financial and social issues affecting seniors by providing education, training, support and communication resources. It's a designation I earned shortly after my wife, Marian, and I started Senior Helpers in 2008. Earlier, we experienced a need for and the benefits of in-home care for Marian's mother, who lived with us for 12 years and required much care as her health deteriorated. We serve the metro Orlando area with caregivers who provide companionship and help with a variety of tasks -- what we call assisted living at home. Marian is a graduate of Rollins College (1999, B.A., humanities), where she completed studies begun in the early 1980s at Oklahoma State University. Before Senior Helpers, she was a Spanish teacher with Florida Virtual School. I have a business/math bachelor's degree from Wake Forest University (1979, Winston-Salem, N.C.) and a master's in journalism from UNC-Chapel Hill (1984). We moved to Orlando in 1997 when I became business editor and later publisher of magazines owned by The Golfweek Group. |
