Meet Our New Life Enrichment Director, Carrie Wine! ✨
We are thrilled to welcome Carrie Wine to MorningStar as our new Life Enrichment Director. Carrie brings a thoughtful, holistic approach to community life and a deep passion for creating meaningful experiences that nurture the body, mind, and spirit. We’re excited for our residents, families, and future residents to get to know her and experience her vision firsthand.
Here’s a message from Carrie herself:
“I am excited to begin my role as the Life Enrichment Director here at MorningStar and would love to formally introduce myself. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from Central Washington University and a doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine from Bastyr University. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, being out in nature, painting, traveling, attending live music, and building meaningful community connections.
Over the past seven years, I have worked as a holistic primary care provider, visual arts instructor, and resident manager. I’m excited to bring this diverse background into my work here by thoughtfully integrating physical wellness, mental engagement, creative expression, and social connection into our life enrichment programming. I am deeply passionate about creating opportunities that support the whole person—nurturing the body, mind, and spirit—and I look forward to growing and enriching our community together.”
