Shelly

Shelly grew up in Duluth, Minnesota. She moved to the Twin Cities to attend college and has been here ever since. Shelly now lives in the western metro with her husband, Bob, and their rescue dog, Maxine. She always knew she would end up working in senior housing.  “I’ve helped many family members navigate the senior housing marketplace over the years, and I was looking for the right opportunity for a career move. I’m so happy to have landed here at Cherrywood Pointe in Plymouth – it’s the best job I can imagine. The leadership team is awesome and the residents are simply the best.”
