She earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Healthcare Administration from UW-Eau Claire and obtained her Nursing Home Administrator’s license. Rebecca joined Capri Communities as Assistant Executive Director at Grace Commons in 2021. She transitioned to Capri’s home office as Operations Specialist before joining Drumlin Reserve.

Rebecca loves building relationships with residents, hearing their stories, and guiding families through the transition to senior living with empathy and compassion.

Outside of work, she enjoys life by trying new restaurants, traveling, hunting with her dad and brother, and spending summer weekends by the lake. She lives by the motto: “Forgive yourself and others, say sorry, tell people how much they mean to you, and never hold a grudge.”
