Ms. Patty Waters

​Director
Top 3 Interests - Senior Care, Mentorship Programs, Fundraising

​Patty Waters has recently graduated with her Masters in Healthcare Administration and Masters in Business Administration from the University of Houston - Clear Lake. I enjoy bringing people, ideas, and inspiration together to ensure the lives of others will be positively impacted. I have always looked to help and truly be the change I wanted to see in the world. I first found my passion for the quality-of-care the elderly receive while on a mission trip to Guatemala and visiting the only nursing home in the city. I also volunteered at the orphanage there for the week and it was an amazing and truly life changing experience. As I began to volunteer at my local assisted living, I then worked there on my breaks from University as a Caregiver. I pursued Business Administration and Healthcare Administration as I still have plans to own and operate an Alzheimer's and Dementia Community. I still have a soft spot for children, specifically foster youth as I am a former foster youth and I want to give back and inspire others that they too can dream big and accomplish what they set out to do. I am a current CASA volunteer and I volunteer with local non-profit organizations in Austin.
