While somewhat of a newcomer to the senior living world, Jeremy is no stranger to the hospitality industry. Jeremy brings 20+ years of hospitality experience to his role at All Seasons. He has spent most of his career working in in luxury properties in Florida, California, and Michigan, including managing the David Whitney Building in downtown Detroit. To Jeremy, ‘hospitality’ is not an industry but, rather, a way of life, an opportunity to brighten residents’ day with a kind word or gesture, enriching lives – offering family reassurance their loved ones are in the best of hands. His guiding principle is to remind staff, daily, to treat all residents with respect, compassion, and dignity – everyone is to be cared for with the utmost respect, as we would our own family. Originally from Fort Wayne, Jeremy spent most of his youth in Indiana followed by a long stay in Florida, before returning to his Midwestern roots here in Michigan several years ago. Outside of work, Jeremy most values time with his wife and son, and particularly likes spending time outdoors.
