Meet the founder
Mandee founded Golden Light Senior Concierge to offer the kind of thoughtful, non-medical support she has long believed older adults deserve — reliable help that honors independence and brings greater peace of mind to both seniors and their families.
Hello, I'm Mandee
Mandee Michael brings more than 20 years of hands-on experience in senior living to her work with Golden Light Senior Concierge. Her career has been defined by a deep commitment to helping older adults live with dignity, purpose, and independence.
These years taught her that the best support is personal, respectful, and practical. She has seen how the right kind of help — whether organizing a home, providing companionship, assisting with a move, or simply being a consistent and caring presence — can reduce stress for both older adults and the families who love them.
Today, Mandee channels that experience into Golden Light Senior Concierge. She is passionate about supporting seniors who want to age in place with greater ease and less overwhelm. Her approach blends practical assistance with genuine warmth, creativity, and attention to the whole person.
Background & experience
Education
Mandee earned a Bachelor of Arts from Endicott College with a concentration in Creative Art Therapy. That foundation in creativity and therapeutic connection has remained central to her approach ever since.
Operations
Early in her career, Mandee gained broad operational experience across nursing, admissions, activities, social services, and quality improvement — learning every corner of how senior living communities actually work.
Leadership
She went on to manage Assisted Living communities, supervising teams, developing individualized service plans, and working closely with residents and families every day.
Programming
As Program Manager at a large continuing care community, Mandee designed and led engaging programming for Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing neighborhoods.
Creative work
She expanded her creative work by developing and leading art classes and custom craft programs across more than 50 senior living communities, helping residents express themselves and stay connected through art.

Outside of work
When she isn't with clients, Mandee is an artist and gardener who finds joy in creating and growing things. She's a mother to three children and shares her home with five dogs and a cat — roles that keep her grounded in the everyday rhythms of family life and deepen her appreciation for the relationships that matter most.
The Golden Light team
Golden Light is a small practice by design — you'll usually work directly with Mandee. As we thoughtfully add caregivers to the team, we'll introduce each of them here so you always know who's walking through your door.
Companion & Home Support
We're thoughtfully expanding the Golden Light team. Every caregiver is personally vetted and trained by Mandee, with the same commitment to warmth, patience, and reliability you'd expect from her directly.
Downsizing & Move Support
As our roster grows, we'll introduce each teammate here — with their story, background, and the areas of Hamilton County they serve — so you always know exactly who is coming to your door.
Mandee and every caregiver who joins Golden Light complete a background check before working with clients. Professional and personal references are available upon request.
No pressure, no forms to fill out first — just a friendly call with Mandee to hear what's going on and whether Golden Light is the right fit.
