Sylvia Chu
Executive Director
Sylvia has served in the senior living industry for over a
decade and spent many prior years in the hospitality business.
She is a firm believer in taking care of previous generations
who have laid the foundation for our current lives. Residents’
life experiences and stories are fascinating to her, and Sylvia
understands that it is crucial to hear these stories in order
to pass them on to the next generation. Sylvia feels very
fortunate in that she truly loves what she does. Outside of
work, Sylvia is active with several major volunteer
organizations and enjoys giving back to society and supporting
her local communities.
