Pinnacle Senior Placements in Kent, WA, was established out of a pure desire to serve the elderly and their families. At present, our company still lives up to that calling by serving each family with dignity and respect.
Daphne leverages her strong business and entrepreneurial background in running Pinnacle Senior Placements. Since 1985, she has experienced handling management positions and establishing her own business. Being in these positions of responsibility allowed her to enjoy the freedom of implementing the credo of “doing the right thing for the right reason every time.”
In 2001, Daphne was introduced to senior care. She continues to enjoy serving elders and their families to this day.
Daphne has been devoting her time for the last 25 years as a loving wife and as a hands-on mother to two boys. She attends family, school, and sporting events while still having a full-time career. Her interests include playing the organ/piano for choir and church services. Aside from that, she also loves traveling both domestically and internationally with her husband and friends.
Emily Badgley has been a part of the Pinnacle team for almost two years. A natural part of her personality is her compassionate heart. This compassion led her to work as a caregiver for more than 15 years in both rehab facilities and adult family homes. Her personality is also inviting and playful, which brought her to being an activities director for an assisted living community. Because of her experience, she has first-hand knowledge about what to look for in a care community. More importantly, she has developed the skills needed to relate to our elder population and help them discover their highest values. It is a natural progression for her to help families secure long term care and housing.
Emily is married and has three children who bring joy and energy to her life. She spends her free time with her family enjoying camping, exploring the Pacific Northwest, and providing firework displays for municipalities.
Lianna Badran comes to Pinnacle with a wealth of personal experience in securing long-term care and housing. In 1991, her journey started by learning about the maze of information available and not available to the consumer looking for care and housing. Because of the confusion and second guessing that can come from this journey, Lianna became a published author about Parkinson’s and the patient’s care needs. She now shares her experiences with families to hopefully decrease the confusion and bring first-time success in securing care and housing for their loved one.
Lianna is originally from Canada and now resides in Washington with her husband. She is a competitive swimmer excelling in the butterfly stroke.
Jolene Micone is the Office Manager for Pinnacle and has been keeping us organized and in compliance since April 2016. She has worked in the health field for 20 years, always supporting others in their success. Though she has limited face-to-face contact with our families, she fully supports our motto of “doing the right thing for the right reason every time” from her computer screen. She spends her time developing and maintaining our database and accounting systems.
Jolene’s first love is her family. She enjoys being married, spending time with her five kids but most importantly, she adores spending time with her three grandchildren. She also enjoys journaling, crafting, and reading.
