‍ The Personal Side Of Phoenix Haven. ‍

‍ ‍CEO

Hi, I'm Miri.

I'm a busy mom of five with a background in the medical field and a very personal connection to the DDD community. My youngest brother, who has Down syndrome, is the inspiration behind Phoenix Haven and my desire to give families a better option for their loved ones.

Since 2019, I've been personally involved in navigating my brother's care, from applications, Medicaid eligibility, and guardianship to ISP meetings, compliance, and ongoing care coordination.

I've also worked within provider agencies, so I understand both how they operate and the challenges families can face along the way. Having experienced both sides, I wanted to help create something different: an agency that combines professional expertise with the personal attention, understanding, and support every family deserves.

Director of Operations

Hi, I’m Daniel.

I bring over 15 years of operations and management experience, with a background in building teams, improving processes, and making sure things run smoothly. I've always taken a hands-on approach, whether it's supporting staff, solving challenges, or simply getting things done.

But my connection to Phoenix Haven goes beyond my professional experience. As a father, big brother, and community leader, I understand how important it is to have people you can depend on. My youngest brother has Down syndrome and has been part of New Jersey's DDD program for years, so I've experienced firsthand many of the challenges families face.

At Phoenix Haven, I bring together my professional experience and personal understanding to make sure families receive the care, attention, and accountability they deserve.
