Ashley Guido joined MorningStar Senior Living in March 2019 as Regional VP of Resident Care at a time when she was finishing a double Master’s at Grand Canyon University (earning in September of that year an MBA and a Master’s of Nursing).

While her father’s naval career moved the family many times, Ashley recalls her childhood years in rural North Carolina with fondness where Grands and Great Grands helped shaped her values—and her cooking skills. Her choice of a nursing career had its origins in caring for a failing family member which, while difficult, affirmed that here was her calling, here lay her gifts.

As a young adult, she ventured to Georgia’s Armstrong Atlantic State University, there earning a BSN and RN license. Landing in Colorado Springs in 2011, she has invested 11 years in serving seniors through skilled nursing facilities, hospice and home health agencies, including a stint as Executive Director.
