Seth Smiley is the Director of Partnerships at SecureSeniorConnections, where he is responsible for developing and enhancing relationships with health and senior care providers. Being the caregiver to his great-aunt with health issues stemming from childhood polio motivated Seth to work for organizations that focus on the wellbeing of older adults. 

Prior to joining SecureSeniorConnections, Seth worked for remote monitoring organizations such as Best Buy Health and Lifeline, which support physical, emotional, and social health for older adults. Through his work, he has gained in-depth knowledge of the complexities of area agencies and senior centers. 

Seth lives in New Hampshire with his wife and two children and enjoys kayaking, running, music, yoga, and yard work (not so much!).
