Episode description

Episode 18: Shawn Perry is the Founder, Executive Producer and Host of The Senior Zone; DC’s #1 radio program for seniors. The Senior Zone’s weekly radio program is dedicated to serving the needs of the older adult community and now in its eight year, has become a forum of connection and inspiring possibilities for older adults seeking tips and directions to senior programs, services, tools, resources, events, advice as well as cultural tidbits. Since 2012, Shawn has worked tirelessly to promote the well-being of older adults and to champion their causes. He attributes his reverence for older adults to his late grandmother, Rosa Lee Perry, whom instilled a profound sense of empathy for the vulnerable, frail and elderly.

Shawn is a retired military officer; serving nearly 22 years in the U.S. Air Force, has a B.S. from the University of Maryland, and has resided in the Washington, DC area since 1985.

Shawn and his wife, Nancy, have four children; Danielle (23), Jared (19), Kayla (17) & Alyssa (15). 

 The Senior Zone was founded in 2012 with the intention of being a “(one stop shop) virtual haven” devoted to senior citizens, their caregivers and families who support and encourage them, and all of who face challenges and opportunities in the day-to-day roller coaster ride we know as life.  Our mission is to provide a forum of connection and possibilities -tools, resources, programs and services for this rapidly increasing sector of our population right here in the Washington DC metro area.
