In every organization, it’s the people behind the “product” that make the difference. This is especially true at English Rose, where every member of our leadership team started as a front-line caregiver and shares a passion to provide our clients with the highest degree of professional and personalized
care available.

With over 30 years of experience in healthcare, Mia brings a wealth of expertise and compassion to her role as Director of English Rose Homecare. Her caregiving career started by providing many months of one-on-one care to a 93-year-old man living with Lewy Body Disease, a form of dementia. The experience was transformative, “I knew then that this is what I wanted to do forever. Help people live the best life they can in the comfort of their own home.”
Mia has a deep understanding of the importance of identifying with each person’s unique needs, and then tailoring assistant to not just make their lives easier, but also more joyful. Mia’s most cherished moments with clients are often the simplest: holding a hand, listening to their life stories, sharing a smile, or brightening their day in meaningful ways. She believes these small, heartfelt connections are at the core of exceptional caregiving.
“What sets English Rose Homecare apart,” Mia explains, “is the care we take in selecting who gets to join our team, and our commitment to truly getting to know our clients. This allows us to match people with the right caregivers so that we provide the support they need, as well as the personalities that will bring warmth and special moments of connection to brighten our client’s days and ease their challenges.”
Outside of work, Mia enjoys baking, exploring her newfound love for pickleball, and—most of all—creating treasured memories with her grandchildren.
By age 14, Zach was dedicating much of his free time to being his grandfather’s companion and caregiver, helping him navigate through Alzheimer’s disease. This early experience sparked Zach’s lifelong passion for caring for older adults, rooted in the love, security, and wellbeing his family provided in their home.
Zach’s caregiving journey continued as nursing home CNA before bringing all his skills and compassion to English Rose. He is inspired by English Rose’s commitment to building genuine client relationships. “Fostering relationships leads to trust,” Zach shares. “Trust opens the door to love, and love is the secret ingredient of exceptional care.”
Those who know Zach describe him as an old soul with a positive attitude, a ready smile, and a natural ability to connect. He listens closely and intuitively understands the needs of clients and their families. A memory that guides him is of time spent with a woman living with dementia who found comfort simply by having Zach sit beside her while she knitted—a reminder of the profound impact of small, meaningful moments.
While his knitting skills are mediocre, his baking skills are legendary. Zach won the 2011 Blue Ribbon at the Goodhue County Fair for his chocolate chip cookies. Outside of work, he enjoys playing guitar, reading, and taking long walks.

For the past 10 years, she has shared her comprehensive background, skills, and unwavering dedication supporting seniors as a member of the English Rose family. “As a nurse, I don’t just provide medical care—I’m also a problem-solver, sharing helpful observations, insights and recommendations with clients and their families because collaboration always leads to the best outcomes,” Emily explains. “My mission is to help people maintain the independence to the greatest degree possible, while having their needs met in the most compassionate and expert way possible is our mission.”
Emily is known for her optimistic, infectious smile, and calming presence. She deeply values listening to her clients and honoring their decisions.

She also appreciates English Rose’s unique team approach, ensuring clients and families never lack in dependable and exemplary support.
After a fulfilling day with her clients, Emily devotes her time to her three children. Together, they enjoy camping, fishing, gardening, and playing board games.
After caring for elderly relatives, Gaby knew the professional path she would pursue. For the past eight years, she has called upon her warmth, humor, and know-how to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those she serves at English Rose.

Gaby shares, “It’s fulfilling to know my behind-the-scenes work helps make our clients’ days easier and creates an environment where our team feels supported and empowered to provide excellent care.”
Gaby treasures heart-to-heart conversations and bringing smiles to the faces of people navigating challenges. A favorite moment at English Rose was helping an older woman reconnect with her passion for art after many years. “The joy on her face after completing her first painting was indescribable,” Gaby recalls. “It reminds me that getting to know people and encouraging them to pursue what they love can be transformative.”
Both at work and in life, Gaby strives to create meaningful memories, believing that even small moments can make an ordinary day into something extraordinary. Outside of work, she enjoys playing with her puppy, reading, and trying new recipes.

Louise’s excitement and inspiration for joining the English Rose team stems from her own caregiving journey with loved ones. As part of the “sandwich generation” that has to balance the needs of parents and children simultaneously, Louise recognizes the invaluable shift that occurs when trained, compassionate, and responsive caregivers step in, enabling families to focus on quality time rather than on the demands of caregiving. This experience motivated Louise to pivot her career, aligning her passions with a mission to help other families discover the benefits of setting up the right support system that will enhance the lives of seniors and their loved ones.
With a natural talent for building relationships, a love of learning, and vibrant personality, Louise was the perfect fit for the role of Strategic Growth Manager at English Rose. Known for her warmth, inclusivity, and positivity, she is a trusted resource for families navigating home healthcare decisions and supporting their parents’ needs at every stage. Though not in a direct caregiving role, Louise insisted on completing the same rigorous training as all English Rose caregivers, gaining an even deeper appreciation for the dedication and excellence that define the English Rose experience. Louise would be glad to meet with you at your convenience to begin exploring the myriad options for homecare through English Rose.
Outside of work, Louise enjoys spending time with her family, power walking, and participating in group fitness classes with fellow exercise enthusiasts.
