Meet the Founder

Golden Days LV was not born in a boardroom. It was born in prayer, in loss, and in a promise I made to honor the man who taught me how to see people.

My father was a Pastor, Community Leader an entrepreneur. He spent his life in service not because it was his profession, but because it was his calling. He had a saying that I carried with me from childhood into every room I ever entered: "There is a little old man or a little old woman growing up inside all of us." He said it to remind us to honor our elders. To see them. To never let the world convince us that a person's worth diminishes with age.

After his transition, I understood this great lesson that he was teaching me all along.

2 years ago. I looked around Las Vegas and saw thousands of seniors’ people who had built this city, raised families, carried whole histories inside them sitting alone. “Not because no one loved them. But because no one had built something truly worthy of them."

I have spent more than 20 years leading people, building programs, and serving communities across multiple cities, states, and regions of this country. My career has taken me through the corporate, private business, and community organizations and non-profit work learning and advancing through multiple levels of leadership building programs from the ground up. Hiring, training, and developing teams along the way. I hold a Property and Casualty Insurance license and countless professional certifications earned across disciplines that demanded client relations, sales, business development, and operational excellence simultaneously. I have held titles and sat at tables where I was often the first or the only. Through every chapter, my faith has been my foundation the thing that tells me that excellence is an act of love, that every person deserves to be treated with dignity. We all are placed here for a greater purpose.

Golden Days LV is that purpose given its proper name. Gold is Refined….

We are not a transportation service. We are not a companion app. We are a premium, white glove social outing experience created for the active seniors of Las Vegas curated outings, intimate groups, and a trusted escort who shows up at your door prepared, present, and honored to be there. Every outing is built around the individual senior their history, their preferences, their pace, and their joy.

Every detail is intentional. Every family that entrusts me with their loved one receives my full commitment: on your Golden day, you will feel it.

I am a minority woman, a leader, a veteran's spouse, and a daughter who still hears her father's voice. I bring a Property and Casualty Insurance license and a career that included working directly with senior clients understanding their needs, their vulnerabilities, and the trust they place in those who serve them. I have served formally in ministry in worship, youth leader. prayer, teaching and church board leadership. I have been recognized through awards, media, and speaking, and have held community board and advisory roles across multiple organizations. I am background checked, CPR and First Aid certified. But more than any credential, I bring a calling and the conviction that the seniors of Las Vegas deserve the very best. I am also acutely aware of the shoulders in which i stand and i am truly honored and grateful to serve our community. Our seniors have so much to give and experience.

This is Golden Days LV. “Live each day like it is Golden.”
