The General Manager at Truewood by Merrill, Charlotte Center in Port Charlotte, Florida.

Meet Melody Thornton,
General Manager

With more than two decades of experience in senior living, I am deeply committed to memory care. My passion for sales, outreach, and organizing marketing events drives me to connect with residents and their families, guiding them through the emotional journey of transitioning to a new lifestyle. I bring over 20 years of experience coaching basketball, having worked with men's semi-pro teams, elite AAU squads, high school, and youth programs. Prior to relocating to Florida, I had a diverse career that included horse training and racing, nursing, and serving as a Parks and Recreation Director.

Melody Thornton, General Manager
