Jill Lindgren has spent most of her career in Engineering and Operations management but took a sharp detour a few years back to focus on solving an enormous problem for baby boomers. As the primary caregiver for her father, who lived with her for 20 years, she gets how hard it is to juggle work, raising kids and caring for a parent all at once. And she knew she was not alone in that struggle. So, she set her ambitions on building a system that helps families manage and organize the care for a loved one.

Jill explains eLivelihood and how it can help families communicate:

• Jill tells us about eLivelihood and why she started it.
• How is eLivelihood’s calendar different than other calendars?
• eLivelihood has a place to store important information, how does that work and how do you protect the information? Who can see it?
• Jill tells us about the tablet application she has developed especially for Seniors.
• How the service can help families during the COVID crisis.
• How do people sign up their families for service?
