Liz Rundle

She earned her bachelor’s degree in healthcare administration in 2009 and began her career managing small, 8-bed CBRF-licensed communities. After ten years, Liz joined Capri Communities in 2016 as the Assistant Director of Harbor Campus in Port Washington.

Sam Koller

Registered nurse

Sam is the RN Manager at The Gables of Germantown. After earning her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from UW-Milwaukee, Sam began her career in a rehabilitation facility before transitioning to assisted living. She later spent over six years on the Post-Partum Unit at Ascension before returning to her passion for senior care.

Outside of work, Sam enjoys life by spending quality time with her young son and their two dogs, cherishing the moments that bring joy and connection.

Joan Rider

Memory Care Manager

In 2010, Joan started her career in senior living working as the activity lady in Memory Care. Her supervisor encouraged – and accepted – her willingness to try out-of-the-box, unconventional engagement activities. It was at that time that Joan knew she wanted to move into management of a Memory Care community.

Joan joined the Capri Communities team at a sister community while it was still under construction as the Lifestyle Enrichment Coordinator of Memory Care and Assisted Living. She transitioned to a different company, spending five years gaining experience in skilled nursing. There, Joan successfully managed a deficient-free enrichment program, made community connections and implemented a wide array of unique programs. During that time, she successfully obtained her certificate as a Certified Dementia Practitioner. In 2022, Joan returned to Capri Communities as the Memory Care Manager at The Gables of Germantown. As a certified Dementia Live Coach, she offers the Dementia Live experience to staff and families at The Gables. Joan also has an associate degree in business management and marketing principles.

“I absolutely love my job,” said Joan. “It is the perfect combination of staff management, enriching programming and marketing.” When she’s not producing zany and crazy ideas for engagement (like axe throwing!), Joan enjoys playing hockey, mentoring her son’s high school robotics team (residents even took a turn driving the team’s robots) and taking care of her critters, including her turtles. Fun Fact: her turtles visit many other Capri Communities during the week of World Turtle Day!
