Caring for seniors isn’t just our work—it’s a responsibility we take to heart.

She comes from a large family of seven siblings, having grown up in a joint household where grandparents lived at home and caring for elders was a natural part of daily life.

She lives in Wixom, Michigan, with her loving husband and their son, and remains deeply connected to her community, friends, and elders.

Professionally, Krushna brings decades of leadership experience, having worked at several large automotive companies and most recently retiring as a Senior Program Manager. Her background has instilled a strong sense of organization, discipline, and attention to detail—ensuring that nothing is overlooked and that care is delivered the right way, every time.

Krushna is passionately committed to making sure every senior we support receives compassionate, empathetic, and thorough care at a price families can realistically afford. Supported by a dedicated team of family members and trained professionals, and guided by the Griswold Foundation’s principles, she ensures that care is not only legally and ethically sound, but also rooted in true kindness and dignity. Her mission is simple: to provide the level of care every senior deserves—thoughtful, respectful, and accessible.
