Promotion Alert!👏🎉 Meet Angie White, our new Culinary Director! Angie has been with us in our culinary department since we've opened our community 8 years ago where she's grown both personally and professionally in senior living dining. Angie says she enjoys working with seniors because of their incredible life stories, wisdom, and experiences. She says knowing a favorite meal of theirs can bring back cherished memories, brighten their day, spark meaningful conversation, and create a comforting sense of home; and says being part of that experience — is incredibly rewarding.

As our new Culinary Director, she says her goals are centered around quality, hospitality, and resident well-being. First, she wants to elevate the overall dining experience by providing nutritious, flavorful meals that residents genuinely look forward to each day. Angie says food is not just nourishment in senior living — it’s comfort, connection, and one of the highlights of the day. Second, she aims to build a strong, well-trained culinary team that takes pride in consistency, presentation, food safety, and service. She says creating a positive kitchen culture will directly impact the quality of what we serve. Angie says ultimately, her goal is to ensure that dining is not just a meal service, but a memorable and meaningful part of each resident’s day.

Outside of work, Angie enjoys outdoor adventures and exploring new places. You can usually find her hiking, gardening, fishing, and boating. Being outside and active is how she recharges. She's also a big St. Louis Cardinals baseball fan and enjoys attending as many games as she can!

Angie has been rocking it in her new Culinary Director role over the last month and we are so proud of her! ♥️😊 Congratulations Angie! ... See MoreSee Less
