Lead­er­ship

Jessica Short

Executive Director

Jes­si­ca Short is the Exec­u­tive Direc­tor at The Arling­ton of Naples.

Bring­ing with her a pas­sion for lead­ing the very best of senior liv­ing options and ser­vices, Jes­si­ca is extreme­ly hap­py to call Naples home. She has invest­ed over 20 years of her pro­fes­sion­al career advanc­ing solu­tions that antic­i­pate the needs, and exceed the expec­ta­tions, of our nation’s grow­ing age wave. Jes­si­ca is con­fi­dent The Arling­ton is a com­mu­ni­ty in which she has abun­dant oppor­tu­ni­ties to do exact­ly that.

Jes­si­ca shares, ​“When I arrived at The Arling­ton for the first time I was greet­ed with a warm smile, per­son­al­ly escort­ed to the area I was look­ing for and left with a smile and the assur­ance that this tru­ly is the very best of com­mu­ni­ties. I know The Arling­ton shares a wel­com­ing heart and this com­mu­ni­ty is the right place for me.”

Jes­si­ca was drawn to ser­vice in the field of senior liv­ing at a young age, begin­ning with a high school job in mem­o­ry care. She earned a Bach­e­lor of Sci­ence in Geron­tol­ogy from Bowl­ing Green State Uni­ver­si­ty in Bowl­ing Green, Ohio, as well as a Mas­ter of Busi­ness Admin­is­tra­tion degree from Tif­fin Uni­ver­si­ty in Tif­fin, Ohio. Through­out her career in senior liv­ing, Jes­si­ca has held roles of increas­ing respon­si­bil­i­ty in sales and mar­ket­ing, finance, and admin­is­tra­tion. As a results-dri­ven Exec­u­tive Direc­tor, she has a proven record of man­ag­ing Life Plan Com­mu­ni­ties (also referred to as Con­tin­u­ing Care Retire­ment Com­mu­ni­ties – CCRCs) that achieve finan­cial sta­bil­i­ty and reg­u­la­to­ry com­pli­ance, while con­sis­tent­ly achiev­ing a high qual­i­ty of care and ser­vices for the pop­u­la­tion the com­mu­ni­ties serve.

The Arling­ton of Naples, a desir­able Life Plan Com­mu­ni­ty with­in the acclaimed Lely Resort, offers res­i­dents a vari­ety of main­te­nance-free Estate Homes or lux­u­ry apart­ment options along­side a thought­ful, con­fi­dent plan for their future. The shared orga­ni­za­tion­al mis­sion of The Arling­ton and Luther­an Life Com­mu­ni­ties is empow­er­ing vibrant, grace-filled liv­ing across all gen­er­a­tions.
