Meet the Team:
Our office staff is just as diverse as our caregivers. Meet the faces behind the people that you email and talk to on the phone.
Mike has over 36 years working primarily in the IT/Telecommunications industry. His past experience ranges from Operations, Procurement, Process design to Account management.
He is an “out of the box” thinker who is always looking for a better way of delivering service. Mike’s passion for working at WRC is in part due to his Dad’s suffering and passing from Alzheimer’s. His Dad was fortunate enough to have an amazing Caregiver who provided much needed respite for Mike’s Mom and as a new companion for his Dad. Mike’s passion to fight Alzheimer’s lead him to create the Grey Matters charity hockey team to raise money for support and a cure. His hobbies include hockey, sailing and family.

Martha might be the first person you meet if you are a new employee at WRC. Her life passion is inspiring people to reach their full potential, which is exactly her focus as our HR person.
As first-generation immigrant to Canada, Martha can relate to many of our caregivers and clients that are grateful to call this beautiful country home. Originally from Colombia, you can bet she still enjoys cumbia, coffee and arepas.
Martha also enjoys quality time with family and friends as well as traveling and exploring new places. In the evenings you will often find her networking on social media and growing her online business in the hair care industry.
At her office you’ll find a selection of personal development books, but her Audible app holds a more extensive library in audio format. She can recommend a few authors that have impacted her life.
Martha’s goal is to leverage resources to build a strong employee force that continues to make WRC a leader in home care.
