Hi, I'm Shalani Colon-and I help people find home in every sense of the word.

I started my career in the world of Recreational Therapy after graduating from Temple University in 2016. For nearly a decade, I worked in healthcare settings bringing joy, connection, and purpose to seniors and individuals with special needs. That experience taught me how to lead with empathy, adapt to changing situations, and genuinely connect with people from all walks of life.
