Ty’s passion for working with seniors began at a young age. She started as a volunteer in nursing homes, where her mother worked, assisting with activities.

Seeing the need for more hands-on care, Ty decided to become a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and Home Health Aide, all while attending college to earn her business degree. Her journey into the world of Adult Day Centers deepened in 2015 when her mother became an Activity Director at an adult day center.
