Our Leadership Team

Bradley Lukas
Executive Director

I began my career at Lanark Village as the Food Service Manager in November 2012, and subsequently moved into the Executive Director role. Since that time, I have been driven to improve quality while enhancing the customer service experience. With well over 15 years of experience in Hospitality, from cooking in fine dining restaurants to working in resort management, I look forward to sharing my skills to support our team in delivering excellent care and services to those that call Lanark Village their home.

Lanark is truly a warm, inviting and comfortable place to be, one that we are proud to call home for our residents. Alongside the leadership team I look forward to continuing to build relationships with you and our community for years to come.

Ashley Smith
Resident Services Manager

In high school I spent many hours working at a local nursing home, I loved getting to hear the resident stories and spend so much time getting to know them. When the opportunity came in early 2024 for me to join the team at Lanark, I knew it was the job for me. Spending my days learning about the Lanark village residents while also using my business skills makes every day a great day at work. My door is always open, and residents stopping in to share a story is always a highlight!

Margaret Smith
Director of Wellness

Since Joining the Lanark Village team in 2014 I have had the pleasure of working alongside a team of dedicated, skilled, and caring individuals. From the very first time I stepped through the doors at Lanark, I felt that it was a very unique environment. On that day I watched the team members and residents interact in such a warm loving manner. It was then that I realized that Lanark was where I was meant to work. I'm most passionate about advocating for our residents and ensuring the best possible experience every day. I consider working with our residents and families to be a  privilege, and I look forward to continuing to support our residents, families and staff for years to come.

Lisa Rathier
FUN Co Ordinator

I started at Lanark Village in 2010 and spent most of those years as a culinary team member with some side trips to other departments.  I have also been part of the staff FUN committee, health and safety committee and the union representative for my coworkers.  All of these different roles were leading me to my dream job of FUN Coordinator and a member of the management team.  Spending time with the residents, sharing our stories, making real connections with each other & and of course planning activities and adventures that keep us all smiling and laughing is what makes my job the best in the building!   

Michael Kramer
Marketing Director

Lanark Village has uncovered a passion in me that I didn't know I had. As the Marketing Director, there is such a reward in building relationships with families and providing them with educated guidance to assist them with the transition to retirement living.

Lanark Village has become a second home to me, I truly love coming into our community every day. The fact that our residents have unconditional trust that we are there for them through everything paints a perfect picture of the family - like culture we take pride in.

Sharon Chase
Culinary Manager

As a dedicated team member of Lanark Village since 1992, I have had the chance to spread happiness and cheer daily while working in the Culinary Department. During my career at Lanark I have proudly shared my passion for preparing good food, by simply cooking from my heart. Leading the Culinary Team at Lanark I work hard to ensure that the residents are happy with the quality of our service and food. My door is always open to hear more about your stories, recipes, or to simply chat about food.
