With over a decade of experience in senior living sales, marketing, and operations, Kaleigh Petree is a dynamic executive known for building high-performing teams and fostering strong, purpose-driven cultures. Her journey began as an activities volunteer and evolved through nearly every role in the industry, giving her a deep, hands-on understanding of both people and process.
Kaleigh leads with integrity, consistency, and a humble heart—believing that real leadership is about showing up the same way every day, especially when it’s hard. She is passionate about mentoring others, elevating workplace culture, and aligning strategy with meaningful impact.
Her greatest inspiration in leadership came from her stepfather, Joe Cain, whom she lost to ALS in 2022. His legacy lives on in her core values and leadership style, which are grounded in humility, compassion, and strength.
She’s also a proud advocate for organizations like the Georgia Senior Living Association and the ALS Association—always striving to be a voice for progress in the field.
Kaleigh lives just outside of Atlanta with her husband (and built-in best friend), Jake, and their fluffy sidekick, Charlie. On her days off, you’ll find her at the lake, connecting with nature, enjoying good music, hunting for vintage fashion finds, or savoring a great cup of coffee.
