Liz Taylor
Liz Taylor began her career as a consumer fraud investigator for the U. S. Federal Trade Commission, where she directed a nationwide investigation of the nursing home industry in the mid-70's.

As one of Washington State's first geriatric care managers, she consults one-on-one with families and individuals, guiding them in making wise decisions in all the many ways to take control as they age -- aging deliberately.
