Testimonials

As Director of Dining & Executive Chef at Highpoint, Tom Koval has used his strong background in fine dining and fast-paced kitchens to create a high-level culinary experience centered around fresh, wholesome food.
His passion for exceptional food quality and top-notch hospitality is evident in everyday meals, beautiful buffets and seasonal celebrations at our community. “I love working with the residents and building a core team that will continue this quality of food as the community grows.”

In her role as Director of Lifestyles, Lauren Piscatelli strives to enhance residents’ overall wellness – while helping them continue to grow. “There are so many other aspects to wellness – physical, spiritual, intellectual – and it all adds value to everybody’s lives.”
Lauren’s unique background in everything from skydiving to yoga gives her a special perspective that Highpoint residents appreciate – and she is happy to pursue her passions as the community continues to grow. “It’s a natural fit to do what I truly enjoy doing and fulfill my hopes and dreams while helping others to fulfill theirs.”

Joann Jeffries came to the realization that it was time for a change. She was turning 80, experienced a health setback and had lost her husband seven years prior. “I’m very lucky that I’m still active, playing golf and seeing friends. But being at Highpoint has given me the opportunity to enjoy the time that I have and to do what’s good for me now that my husband is no longer here.”

She found exactly what she was looking for at our beautiful, new community – most importantly, she feels greater reassurance in having a plan in place for the future.
