Our Story: A Vision Rooted in Integrity and Heart

The Intersection of Precision and Compassion

The Palms at McCormick Ranch was born from a shared vision between two leaders who believe that memory care deserves a higher standard. We saw an opportunity to move away from the “institutional” feel of traditional senior living and create something truly boutique—a sanctuary where high-level health strategy meets the warmth of a private home.

The Foundation: Brandon Lebster

With a professional background in Civil Engineering and Property Investment, Brandon brings a unique lens to the world of senior living. To Brandon, a building is more than just a structure; it is an environment that dictates how we feel, move, and heal.

His engineering mindset ensures that every detail of The Palms—from the safety of our floor plans to the serenity of our outdoor spaces—is designed with precision and integrity. However, it was his heart for making a difference that led him to pivot from the corporate world to the care world. For Brandon, The Palms isn’t just an investment in property; it’s an investment in the dignity and quality of life for Scottsdale’s seniors.

The Heart of Wellness: Jana Milligan

Bringing the vision to life is Jana, who offers over 20 years of dedicated experience in senior living. Having managed and consulted for communities across the spectrum of care, Jana understood that the missing piece in most memory care settings was a truly personalized, whole-person approach.

As an Integrative Health Practitioner, Jana has woven the principles of wellness into the very fabric of our care model. By merging two decades of clinical and operational expertise with a deep knowledge of nutrition, movement, and sensory health, [Your Name] ensures that care at The Palms goes beyond “monitoring”—it focuses on thriving.

A Boutique Partnership

Together, we have created a home that reflects our combined values: the structural excellence and reliability of engineering and technology, and the soulful, holistic care of a health-centered lifestyle.

We didn’t just want to open another assisted living; we wanted to create a place where we would be proud to have our own parents live. At The Palms at McCormick Ranch, you aren’t just choosing a facility—you are joining a community built on a foundation of professional expertise and a genuine heart for service.
