Board & Staff

MANAGER

Shawna is the manager of our administrative team. Shawna joined Garden Terrace in 2015 after being owner/manager of a family orchard business for 25 years. Shawna brings management skills along with a deep level of respect and admiration for our senior population both inside and outside our walls. Shawna has built a rapport with each and every resident who resides in our facility. As a building manager, Shawna oversees the day-to-day operations of Garden Terrace Senior Living, ensuring that all systems from maintenance, food service and inner office management are operating smoothly and efficiently.

SERVICES COORDINATOR

Tina’s position is funded by a grant from HUD and is meant to provide an important resource pool of resident services. She helps our residents to file important paperwork, apply for outside chore services, arrange transportation, and provides them a listening ear. She also maintains an emergency food and dry goods pantry for residents whose funds often run short at the end of a month.

DEVELOPMENT MANAGER

Ken transitioned from Executive Director duties here at Garden Terrace to our Development Manager focusing largely on fundraising for our amazing non-profit senior facility. He is still the voice of Garden Terrace through the twice-monthly Senior Moments newsletter. His background includes 12 years as the local Burger King franchisee in the 80’s, 18 years as Director of Stewardship and Donor Development for the Church of the Brethren General Board in the 90’s and 00's, and as a former Garden Terrace board member.

MAINTENANCE

Carlos is a hard working young man whose job is to perform and supervise general preventative maintenance, minor plumbing and electrical repairs, and corrective maintenance. He also facilitates apartment rehabilitation and turn over as well as overseeing the completion of work orders for resident repairs.

MAINTENANCE

Arturo is our second hard-working young man who brings amazing carpentry skills to Garden Terrace and is busy rehabbing apartments alongside Carlos. He is also tasked to perform and supervise general preventative maintenance, minor plumbing and electrical repairs, and corrective maintenance. He also facilitates apartment rehabilitation and turnover as well as overseeing the completion of work orders for resident repairs.

MAINTENANCE ASSISTANT/CLEANING SPECIALIST

Cynthia (Cindy) fulfills two important functions in her work at Garden Terrace. First, she is the person that maintains the cleaning and sanitizing of our common areas – very important. She is also available to help our maintenance staff with apartment rehabilitation, and maintaining proper levels of supplies on hand.

FOOD SERVICE MANAGER

Eric came to us from another senior facility here in the valley. He has over 12 years experience cooking for seniors. We love his enthusiasm, joy for his work, and great rapport with his staff.

COOK

Mm - mm - good. Seems like she can do it all.

Don’t forget the rest of our part-time staff and volunteers who set-up, serve, and clean up the meals for our residents.
Please give them a round of applause!
