Daniel Almendares

Operations is everchanging requiring flexibility and adaptability. Plans change, and they make sure the business can change and grow in conjunction. The enjoyment of working in operations comes from interacting with all departments and levels. The connections built with his colleagues through conversations and shared goals deepens his understanding of the business. Their relationships perpetuate honesty about where the organization can improve as a whole unit instead of individual departments.

Senior housing operations is where Daniel has built his career, but it is certainly not what he envisioned.He always planned on becoming a doctor and obtained his Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Florida, but after a semester at the University of South Florida he realized it was no longer what drove him. With a passion for business and healthcare, Daniel fell into the senior housing world and never looked back. He started with a small ALF owner/operator group and helped build the company over 7 years. In that time, he developed the entire structure from the ground up as they grew from 100 beds to close to 1,000. Concurrently, he obtained his Master of Business Administration from the University of Florida and grew from an administrator in training to the Vice President of Operations. Daniel was brought into the SRI family to help continue their significant success.

SRI Management is uniquely positioned as a management company to bring maximum value and growth to their ownership groups and employees. It starts with their vision of treating others how they would like to be treated. Because of that core tenet, the operations of the communities they manage and the employees within them are the main priority. Building upon this strong foundation is a company that is small enough to easily maneuver within a rapidly changing industry, but large enough to offer the resources and services even the largest of investor groups would find valuable.
