Greenspring Sales Associate Sheila Leverich has just become the campus’s newest retirement counselor.

High credentials
Beginning her career at Greenspring a mere two weeks before the first residents moved in, Leverich has helped hundreds of people make the move to the popular campus in Northern Virginia.

Enthusiastic as she is helpful, the former sales associate says, “Over the years, I have filled almost every position in the office. Whenever someone is out, I do my best to provide a high level of service to everyone who comes through our doors.”

Born to take charge
As a former Army parachutist (completing 38 jumps) and Operation Desert Storm veteran, Leverich knows the meaning of duty and commitment she shares that dedication with the people who live at Greenspring.

“I want people to be excited about coming here,” she says. “Greenspring is a great place to live. At the same time, it’s important that people trust me and know that I am looking out for their best interests.”

Away from work
When she’s not helping her “Greenspring family,” as she calls them, Leverich enjoys spending her free time with her nine-year-old son Nicky, a sports lover and straight-A student.

She’s also recently started running local races. “I have always liked running,” she says. “Over the last year I’ve run a half marathon, several 8 and 10Ks, and the Army 10-miler. It’s so much fun.”
