Where we started...

​Our founder, Jill Kearney, achieved her certification in Redesign and Real Estate Staging in 2006, adding Senior Move Management in 2009. Today, Senior HOMES by Design expands our offerings to include home redesign & modifications for those who are finding that staying at home is the best option for them.  

In July, 2015, Jill was recognized by her peers as an industry leader and was elected to the Board of NASMM, the National Association of Senior Move Managers.  In 2016, she earned her certificate from NASMM@home to serve the Aging-In-Place marketplace and in 2017 her company earned the prestigious A+ Accredidation through NASMM. The Senior Homes by Design staff has achieved certification in CAPS (Certified Aging in Place Specialist) as well as memberships in ASID and IFDA. ​​​

​Our lead designer, Sharon Waddell, holds a bachelors degree in Interior Design and passed her NCIDQ* exams in 1998. She has been designing for retail, residential, senior living and staging ever since. Sharon is also a professional member of the American Society of Interior Designers.
 
In June of 2015, Sharon joined Senior MOVES by Design (our sister company). In 2016, she earned her certificate from NASMM@Home to serve the Aging-In-Place marketplace and in March of 2017 she earned her CAPS certification (Certified Aging in Place Specialist). Sharon has loved working with seniors from the very beginning.
