VANCOUVER, WASHINGTON / January, 22 2026
Sinceri Senior Living is pleased to announce the elevation of Chris Belford to Co-Chairman from his current role as CEO. Sinceri had a transformational year in 2025 with 16,084 units and 138 communities now under management, making it the 6th largest senior living management company nationwide. The growth solidifies Sinceri’s position as a leading national operator of independent living, assisted living, and memory care communities.
Jonah Sonnenborn, Senior Managing Director at Access Industries and Co-Chairman of Sinceri commented, “2025 was an amazing year for Sinceri, and we are indebted to Chris for his operational leadership during his five years as CEO. This new role recognizes Chris’ strategic leadership and vision, which will continue to help guide Sinceri into the future. Chris is recognized by our partners and his peers as an industry leader and he will continue to be a driving force for the company. Chris and I look forward to working with April Young and Micah Gerber as they assume day-to-day control of the company while continuing in their roles as Co-Presidents.”
“I’m proud of the success Sinceri was able to achieve for our partners, our residents, our employees, and our investors this year,” said Belford. “Sinceri has taken its rightful place as a leader in the senior housing industry, and I am thrilled to continue to play a leading role. Sinceri built a great team during my time as CEO. I look forward to working with Micah and April to support Sinceri’s next chapter in my new position as Co-Chairman.”
