Meet Our Founder

Anne-Marie Schmid is a Colorado native and founder of Elder Guidance, LLC. As a child, her father, a family physician, would take her on rounds at nursing homes and visit the elderly, offering her exposure to the full spectrum of life’s journey and the wisdom of elders. Anne-Marie began working as a nurses-aide in high school and continued working with seniors in the mental health field for seven years following college. She served as National Sales Director in the hospitality field for 16 years and has volunteered for many years with hospice.

She also brings first-hand experience as a Community Sales Director within an Assisted Living community, further strengthening her understanding of senior care and the needs of families navigating these important decisions.

Her mission is simple: help families find the right place for their loved ones with trust, care, and expertise.
