Our Team - Thousand Oaks
Management Team
TJ Azores
CEO
With more than a decade of experience in sales, operations, and logistics, TJ, along with his strong educational background (Doctorate in Business Administration) has an edge among the competition and the potential for entrepreneurial success. However, this does not mean that he is purely “all business”.
Like 1Heart’s founder, Belina C. Nernberg, he believes in putting “service for others” first and in giving back to the community. His lifelong quest of owning a business lead him to the opportunity in home care and the reason why he chose to be a 1Heart Franchisee was due to the fact that their concept of “Caring like Family” stands out from the other home care agencies.
““Growing up in a very tight knit household, I have seen the value of family members caring for one another. That is what I would like for my clients, to feel that they have a family in us.”
