About the Author
Dr. Sue Paul, OTR/L, MBA is an occupational therapist, senior living leader, and consultant specializing in healthy aging, brain health, and the built environment. As Founder and Executive Director of SeniorScapes, Inc., she led the creation of a pioneering SeniorScapes park that reimagines what public space can be for older adults.
Sue serves as Senior Director of Well-being and Brain Health for a multi-site senior living organization, where she develops and oversees wellness and brain health programs across ten communities. Her work bridges gerontology, rehabilitation, public health, and urban design, translating research into practical solutions for cities and organizations.
She is a frequent speaker on healthy aging, age-inclusive design, and innovative models of community infrastructure — and believes that every community deserves at least one park intentionally designed for older adults.
This book should be required reading for every city planning department that cares about healthy aging.
