High Country Senior Advisors was founded by Kari Baker, a Flagstaff resident who knows firsthand what it means to walk alongside a loved one through the journey of Alzheimer's disease. Kari's grandmother, Verlon, lived with Alzheimer's for several years before her passing, and the time Kari spent at her side — visiting, listening, and simply being present — shaped everything about the way she approaches this work. Those visits taught Kari that people living with dementia are still fully themselves: funny, wise, surprising, and worthy of deep dignity and care. That belief is the foundation of High Country Senior Advisors. While Kari has a special passion for dementia and memory care placements, she proudly serves families across every care need — from Assisted Living to residential care homes — ensuring that every senior, regardless of diagnosis, receives the same thoughtful, personalized guidance. Kari founded this practice to be the guide she wished her own family had — someone who understands not just the logistics of finding the right community, but the grief, the guilt, the love, and the hope that come with it. Whether you are navigating a new diagnosis, searching for the right memory care community, or simply trying to figure out the next right step for someone you love, Kari brings both professional expertise and personal compassion to every family she serves.
