Michelle T. Gramoglia

Michelle was appointed President and CEO in March 2016 after holding the Executive Director position at Woodland Pond since November 2013. Prior to that, Michelle served in various financial roles at Woodland Pond since 2007, including having been the Controller from 2010 through 2013. Michelle began her career as a corporate auditor for PricewaterhouseCoopers (PWC), a role she held for 7 years. While at PWC, Michelle’s client list included continuing care retirement communities, like Woodland Pond.

Michelle’s finance background and experience at Woodland Pond through the construction phase (2007 – 2010) served her well in becoming familiar with the challenges and opportunities of the senior living field. This experience led to Michelle’s appointment to the LeadingAge NY Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) Cabinet in 2012, where she served an initial 3 year term, ultimately to be reappointed for a second three year term beginning in 2015. Michelle was elected by her Cabinet peers as the Vice President of the Cabinet from 2015-2019, and in 2019 was elected President of the Cabinet. In this role, Michelle is now also a voting member of the LeadingAge NY Board of Trustees.
