Maple Ridge Senior Living
Our Team

Emily joined our team in 2020 after spending over 5 years in Marketing and Sales. She brings along her strong interpersonal skills, a desire to understand our residents needs and a big smile that is hard to miss. 

Originally from Buffalo, New York, she moved to the Rogue Valley in 2017 after accepting a previous career opportunity. Since then she has established roots in Southern Oregon, enjoying our warmer climate and beautiful views. 

When Emily is not at work, you’ll catch her watching football (she is a huge Buffalo Bills fan), relaxing with friends and family, or playing with her boisterous cat Barrett.

Born and raised in Gilchrist, Oregon, Marsha comes to Maple Ridge with a 20-year Office Management background. Excited to be back in Southern Oregon after enduring loss in the Alameda fire, she has found positive joy again becoming part of the Maple Ridge family. Nothing puts a smile on her face faster than seeing the happiness the Residents experience living in such a positive environment with a caring and compassionate team.

Mother of 3 boys, Arik, Bryan and Tyler, and grandmother to 6, Marsha spends her time away from work reading, cooking, taking nature walks, listening to her favorite band The Foo Fighters and enjoying her family. “Being at Maple Ridge is a wonderful opportunity for me – I am grateful and thankful every day to be here. I am so excited to be part of a team that is so focused on the Residents, their comfort, care and happiness”.

Erin joined the team at Maple Ridge as the Wellness Director in the Spring of 2022. She has worked as a nurse in post-acute skilled nursing and other assisted living facilities since 2013 before coming to Maple Ridge. Erin came to Maple Ridge after hearing what a great community it was to be a part of. She loves working here because of the friendly and welcoming atmosphere. In her time off she enjoys reading and spending time with friends and family.

Haley Nichols is originally from Fresno, California and has been an Ashland resident since 2018. She graduated from Southern Oregon University with a Bachelors in Fine Arts, her main interests being sculpture and gallery management. Having worked as the student director of the Center for the Visual Arts Galleries at SOU, Haley uses her management and event planning experience to create interactive activities and social happenings for Maple Ridge residents. To Haley, community means using collective creativity to enrich the lives of all members. She is excited to be working for and with the residents who have made her feel very welcome.

In her free time, Haley enjoys working at the Schneider Museum of Art, being outside, working in the studio, or hanging out with her pet rat named Ratthew.
