She has worked in the health field for over a decade in different specialties such as Cardiology, Endocrinology, Assisted Living, and Skilled Nursing Homes. Her love for Gerontology brought her to Home Instead nine years ago. Her passion has always been serving and caring for those around her. In addition to being an advocate for seniors, Sheena is a board member with West Fargo Area Community Partners.

Away from the office, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Drew, and her two children: Trew (13) and Hadley (10). The Sando family enjoys spending summers at the lake, sports, fishing, and waterparks!

Kim has been with Home Instead for almost 3 years. She is “enhancing lives” here at Home Instead by bringing out the best in our Care Professionals and Key Players through learning and development opportunities.  “Our clients have quality care due mainly to the educational resources and training our Care Pros receive.” 

Kim has a multitude of leadership competences in the education and human resource field. She served as a teacher, a consultant, and elementary principal for over 20 years. Leaving public education led her to follow her passion in professional development as a corporate training and development manager in a research facility.

Kim enjoys spending time with her family, particularly her grandson, Henry!  Other blessings include, spending time at the lake in the summer, traveling, going to live music events – enjoying life!

Tonya joined the Home Instead team in 2023 after moving to Fargo from Austin, Texas - to be closer to her daughter. She joins us with many years in the healthcare field!

Tonya graduated from Austin Community College with an Associate of Applied Sciences Degree in Emergency Medical Services and was a Licensed Paramedic in Texas for over 15 years. She began working in Home care in 2007 and fell in love with it. She has a true passion for helping people stay in their homes for a long as they can after seeing her own grandmother pass away in the hospital, asking to go home.

In her free time she enjoys spending time with 3-year-old grandson, Jerric, who is a bundle of energy! They love to play with Dinosaurs, go to the park, and currently explore Fargo with her daughter Madison.

Tyler grew up in Walker, Minnesota, and graduated from Minnesota State University Moorhead with a BS in Advertising and Public Relations.

He is looking forward to utilizing his passion for helping people by bringing his creativity to Home Instead and helping as many people as possible!

Outside of the office, Tyler loves to be around the people that mean the most to him. His interests/hobbies include watching movies/sports, going out on adventures, and working on writing his first novel!

Brittni grew up in Minot, ND and has lived in Fargo since 2013. She graduated from the University of Mary in 2012 with her bachelor's degree in nursing, then with her master's degree in nursing leadership and administration in 2018.  

Her experience as a Registered Nursing includes inpatient rehab, mental health, and med/surg. She has also worked in a Fargo dermatology clinic, home health and hospice.

Away from work Brittni enjoys watching hockey, spending time with her family: her husband, Casey, her three boys- Camdyn, Carter, and Crew, and her mini goldendoodle and cat. She also enjoys peace and quiet (a rarity!), drinking [lots of] coffee, and bible study.
