I'm Kerry Burnight, PhD, founder of the advisory firm, The Gerontologist, Inc.   I am on a life-long mission to improve the second half of life.


As professor of Geriatric Medicine for nearly two decades, I saw first hand the tragedies and triumphs of growing old.  I  co-founded and directed the nation's first Elder Abuse Forensic Center and the national non-profit, Ageless Alliance: United Against Elder Abuse. 


 For 5 years, I served on the executive leadership team of GrandPad, a technology firm that has connected over 100,000 adults  using custom-engineered tablets.  


Now my focus is on transcendent design. That is, solutions to every day challenges that serve older people so well that  all people ASPIRE  to use them. 

Making older lives better requires:

  •  skillfull and  continuous listening to older adults; 
  • expertise in the physical, social, and ethical complexities of aging; 
  • and above all, love.
