Leadership Team
A Dedicated Leadership Team
Providing strategic planning and operational expertise, our Senior Leadership Team is supported by experienced Board members who are highly regarded in their professions, and exceptional associates across our organization.
With a strong foundation, forward-thinking and collaborative leadership, and an organization dedicated to doing all the good we can with integrity, transparency, and grace, Asbury is well prepared to continue its role as a national, not-for-profit senior living leader.
“I view my role as RiverWoods Executive Director as an incredible opportunity to continually support our Central Pennsylvania community. Having dedicated my career to serving others, I am excited by Asbury’s Mission to ‘do all the good we can’ for those we serve. I take great pride in being part of a person-centered organization that seeks to provide the very best experience for all those who live and work here.”
“I have the best job in the world, I help people share their blessings to make the world a better place – sometimes for one, sometimes for many – but always for good!”
Rev. Dr. Michael T. Goodling has served as Chaplain at RiverWoods Senior Living Community since April 2025, bringing more than four decades of continuous ministry experience, beginning in 1984. He has pastored multiple congregations and also served as a Special Assignment missionary to the Kingdom of Swaziland (Eswatini), where he ministered in HIV/AIDS outreach and community care. At RiverWoods, Pastor Michael provides spiritual leadership through worship services, Bible studies, pastoral counseling, bedside visitation, grief support, and interfaith care for residents, families, and staff. He is passionate about fostering dignity, compassion, and meaningful connection, and considers it a privilege to walk alongside residents, offering encouragement, hope, and spiritual support.
“In my role as Director of Sales, I am so happy to help potential residents find the perfect apartment, cottage, or personal care residence to suit their needs. I love meeting families from all over the country looking to relocate to RiverWoods, where they can retire and enjoy maintenance-free living. Many move to RiverWoods to be near family and friends in the area, and I am thrilled to help them make the move an easy and stress-free experience. I look forward to seeing residents enjoy their new life on our campus and I love watching them make new friends and take part in our wellness activities and other amenities.”
“As the Senior Human Resources Generalist at Asbury RiverWoods, my primary responsibilities include orientation, associate advocacy and fostering management partnerships. My goal is to be a resource for all associates across campus. I want everyone to feel free to contact me with any questions or if they need any guidance.”
As a 2025 ICAA Wellness Director Pinnacle Award Winner and a certified fitness and wellness professional for over two decades, I bring a wealth of knowledge, enthusiasm, and dedication to all of our resident-centered wellness opportunities and experiences. I am committed to comprehending the unique starting points of each resident as we collaborate, establishing an engaging and rewarding wellness journey.
“I came to Riverwoods having dedicated 20 years to aging social work. It is my goal everyday to ensure that residents are safe, have all of their needs met, and are their best selves. My interest in social work began while working at RiverWoods as a teenager. Joining the Riverwoods community again feels like ‘coming home.’ Over the years I have worked with many individuals, but I’m most proud to work with such a great team here at RiverWoods.”
