Meet the Owner
Paul & Rhine Hines
I am originally from Puerto Rico. I graduated from a university as an aerospace engineer. After that, I worked for several big companies as a mechanical engineer, including working for Crystler at their proving grounds in Michigan. I didn’t love that weather, so we moved down to Texas, where I started working for Cooper Tires as a testing engineer.
When that company was bought out, I decided to start looking for other opportunities. I always wanted to live in Florida. We have two kids, so being closer to Puerto Rico and my family was very important. I’ve been a forensic engineer in Florida for about two years. I love it as a job, but it isn’t my passion. I’ve always had a desire to own my own business. I want to have the power and the ability to control my future and my family’s future — moving forward the way we want to move forward.
I also wanted to work alongside my wife Rhine Batiancila. She is the mother of our two-year-old son and our eight-year-old daughter. She studied hotel management and restaurant management, working for seven seasons at Gran Hotel on Mackinac Island, Michigan. She also worked for seven seasons at a resort in Vero Beach, Florida.
Everyone understands the challenges of taking care of the elderly in their family. Once you reach a certain age in your life, you look around and realize that your parents or elderly family members may have health issues or need assistance.
