The AgeSong model of care was inspired by the diverse backgrounds of its founders — three brothers who combined their respective expertise in psychology, theology, and law into a passion for changing the vision of elder care. They were later joined by their sister, and AgeSong grew to attract leading professionals in the field of aging.
Our communities serve as exemplary training environments for students, interns, volunteers, international visitors, and others. For instance, our gero-wellness program is a model of process-oriented, existential training for many universities here and abroad. Through this program, interns join with residents to create a truly intergenerational exchange.

Marti graduated from California State University, Hayward, with a degree in Human Development and a minor in Gerontology. She joined AgeSong as Executive Director at Lakeside Park in 2011. Marti has over 6 years of experience in elder care communities here in the Bay Area. She also has over 12 years experience working in the field of therapeutic touch, part of the integrative care philosophy of AgeSong. Marti has enjoyed a life-long relationship with elders, having grown up in a multi-generational home and volunteering for many years visiting elders in their own homes, nursing homes, senior centers and hospice settings. Marti loves to spend time at Point Isabel with her dog, Petunia, and husband, Russ. She likes tending to her garden, helping Russ prepare gourmet meals, and relaxing with a good historical novel.
