Lisa Funk

Business Office Manager

lisa.funk@waldensviewseniorliving.com

Prior to my position as the Business Office Manager at Walden’s View of North Huntingdon, I have held a lot of work hats! I began, as most teenagers do, as a fast food worker. Moving onto waitressing, and then into the healthcare field. I was a Nurses Aide at a skilled facility for 3 years, prior to moving to Houston, Texas, in my 20’s, I was employed in the apartment industry, starting as a leasing agent and making my way up to managing a complex. I returned to PA, after marrying and have 2 wonderful children. Once back in PA, I was “just a mom” for a few years, before getting back into the workforce. I headed right back into health care, going into dietary and laundry! Now, several years and a few personal care homes later, I am here working with wonderful co-workers and residents. This is where my heart belongs. I love intermingling with everyone, and putting a smile on their face, which they do for me in return! And, to add a great highlight, I became a first time grandmother in 2019!/p>
