OPS Living
Owner & CEO
Sherri has spent more than 17 years in senior living and opened nine buildings as a VP of Operations before founding OPS Living. She led sales organizations to $42M in annual revenue, then decided she would rather own buildings than report on them. She runs OPS the way she would want her own mother's community run.
