Marcy Leiman

Community Outreach Liaison

Marcy joined the Right at Home team in July 2023 after working as a marketing professional in two other home care agencies. Her passion for working on behalf of senior citizens sparked after she volunteered for several years at a local assisted living and memory care facility. In addition, she was an intricate part of her father’s care who suffered from Alzheimer’s disease. These experiences led her to become a Certified Dementia Advisor and a Dementia Live Coach and has given her a new lens when discussing home care options to potential clients and care partners. Marcy graduated from SUNY Buffalo with a B.A. in Communications and later received her M.Ed. from Lesley University. She spent seven years teaching elementary education in Massachusetts, but once her children were born, she wanted a more flexible schedule.
