Susie Coalter

Director of Community Relations

Susie discovered her passion for seniors and the benefits of senior living through her own father’s experience. “After moving dad into an assisted living community, we saw that he had more time and energy for the things he enjoyed, his life was easier! We gained years with him that I’m not sure we would have had he stayed in his home.”

Prior to senior living Susie worked in the multi-family industry and enjoyed finding the perfect home for her clients. With four years’ experience in senior living, Susie has found the perfect place to serve seniors and welcome them home. “My heart’s desire is for our residents to live safer lives, enjoy a sense of community, and for their families to have peace of mind”. Originally from San Diego CA, Susie relocated to Northern KY from Lexington. She spends her time with her two children and friends, hiking and exploring Central Kentucky and the Smoky Mountains.
