Janell Dunn

Executive Director

Janell comes to us with eight years of experience in senior living.  She has a degree in social services and has had the opportunity to be a Life Enrichment Director and for the last six years an Executive Director.  She loves the residents, associates, and families and doesn’t see herself doing anything else.  Janell loves to travel with her husband, spending time with her two sons, and watching movies.  Her youngest son just graduated high school this year and her oldest son graduated last year. Janell’s grandmother had Alzheimer’s and her mom passed away in 2011 from cancer.  Janell’s mom was her best friend, and she misses her every day.  She feels that going through these life events, it has made her more understanding of people’s situations and pain which makes her more empathetic to their circumstances. Janell values the relationships that she has made in the senior living industry and is super excited to be a part of the Atlas family.
