Company Founder and Silver Living Strategist • Ellen Belk, BC-DEd CDP
From the sidelines to the frontlines. After ten successful years in Sports Broadcasting, Ellen transitioned into the Senior Living space. She traded in her courtside seats on press row in New York City to take an entry-level job at a nursing home in Wisconsin. Certainly a unique transition.
Ellen brought a fresh set of eyes and a new perspective to an industry that doesn’t crave change. Early on, she stood out as a fearless advocate for both residents in her care and the staff she supervised.
She’s held leadership roles within several prominent organizations such as Ascension, Brookdale, Atria Senior Living, and Milestone Retirement Communities.
Ellen has remarkable success creating companywide signatures & initiatives that garner media attention and compliment the Sales efforts for each employer she’s served. A natural-born leader, she moves seamlessly from the C-Suite to the front-line staff, offering high-impact strategic solutions with a side of humor.
Once an industry outsider now a dynamic speaker, Dementia Expert, and celebrated innovative thought leader in the aging space.
