Laura Cassell has been working in the aging services industry for almost 7 years now. She started her career in Minnesota as a Marketing and Sales Director at a large community. Her love and passion for helping families understand their options for their loved ones took over and her job became apart of who she is. Laura’s grandma was a huge part of her upbringing and she was surrounded by her wisdom and love until she passed away in 2011. She has always known that she loved being around the elderly but didn't realize she could do it for a living. Laura wakes up everyday knowing she gets to help families and older adults find a home that they can afford, fits their care needs and in their desired locations, and that is immensely rewarding and meaningful to her. She is blessed to get to know the clients she works with and that they allow her into their lives through such a vulnerable and tough time. Laura is currently finishing up her Master's Degree in Gerontology through the University of South Florida (online), to further her knowledge on how humans age and develop to advance her skill sets for her clients.
