Previously, Natalie spent seven years as Executive Director of Nora’s Home in Houston, where she led the organization through a major expansion that doubled its capacity while strengthening programs, partnerships, and long-term sustainability.

Care Director

Jessica began her caregiving career in 2004, working in hospitals and care facilities where she witnessed the challenges of traditional long-term care. After starting her family, she returned home to the Methow Valley and discovered the Green House model at Jamie’s Place — a radically different approach centered on dignity, relationship, and home. She grew from Shahbaz to manager to Associate Director, while furthering her education in long-term and end-of-life care. Jessica now leads with compassion, faith, and deep commitment to elders, families, and staff alike.
