Asbury Methodist Village Leadership Shapes Success

Campus Leadership

The Campus Team is comprised of a compassionate and dedicated staff who run the day-to-day operations of Asbury Methodist Village.

Michele Potter

Executive Director

“My primary goal is to assure that we provide the very best quality of life for residents and associates of this community, honoring Asbury’s Mission to do all the good we can for those we serve.  During my 20-plus years serving the City of Gaithersburg I developed close ties with Asbury Methodist Village and the dynamic people who live here, serving on its Community Advisory Committee. I have always admired the culture and respected that Asbury is an innovator and leader in senior living.  I am eager to help lead its nearly 100-year legacy forward and strive for greatness every day.”

Michael Athen

Administrator, Assisted Living

“As a community, Kindley Assisted Living strives to provide person-centered care and high quality of life experiences for residents, families, friends, and associates.  Through engagement and relationship building, we create opportunities to better ourselves and others.  This community works every day to find collaborative, new and innovative ways to provide services to those who are a part of it and I am honored to be a part of it.”

Rachel Karish

Associate Executive Director, Health Care

“It is my great pleasure to ensure that the people who live at or are receiving short-term care from Wilson Health Care Center are getting the highest quality of service possible and that it is always delivered with skill and compassion. It is my privilege to lead a team of professionals who are Mission focused and who strive to deliver their very best each day. The strong relationships we develop with each other and with the residents of Wilson Health Care Center create a family atmosphere that you can feel.”

Rev. Dr. Malcolm Frazier

Director, Pastoral Care and Counseling

“Being a native of Gaithersburg, this position brings my ministry back full circle, back to the place where I was nurtured and embraced my calling to be an ordained elder in the United Methodist Church. One of the roles of the pastoral counselor is to be the hearer and interpreter of stories. As I have provided pastoral care, the value of personal narrative is evident. It is my honor to be part of this new ministry at Asbury.”

Jeanne Dimmick

Director, Campus Communications 

“It is my goal to connect the Asbury community with critical information. Whether its through the weekly e-news, our monthly campus magazine, executive communications, or simple campus signage, my team works to ensure residents and associates are well informed about safety and lifestyle issues affecting our campus.”

Rob Walker

Director, Protective Services & Transportation

“Providing residents with 24/7 security and medical attention in their time of need, supporting them through transportation, and ensuring their calls  to the Gatehouse, and those from their family members, are answered quickly, professionally, and handled successfully is our primary goal day in and day out. It is my pleasure to serve the residents, family members, and associates of Asbury Methodist Village.”
