DES MOINES, IOWA–Lifespace Communities announces Maia Bonner as its new vice president of sales. Bonner, a 20-year industry veteran, will oversee sales initiatives for the nonprofit senior living organization, which owns and operates 12 communities across seven states.
“It’s an honor to welcome Maia to the Lifespace family,” said Sloan Bentley, Lifespace president and CEO. “Maia has a comprehensive understanding of the challenges facing retirement communities and the families they serve. She’s also interested in innovative approaches to both attracting and meeting the demands of current and future residents, which is invaluable in meeting our strategic goals.”

Prior to joining Lifespace, she served as vice president of sales at HumanGood, a California-based nonprofit senior living organization. There, she oversaw a team of more than 50 sales professionals at 18 communities.
