Ian Bongaardt
Owner | 10 Years
Owner and son of Sallie and Clark Bongaardt, Ian’s first experiences with caregiving came about when helping his grandparents. During this time, he grew to understand the needs of older adults and realized how assisting with daily tasks could make a tremendous difference in the life of a senior. When his parents purchased the Comfort Keepers franchise, he saw the opportunity to continue to help families who were like his own.
Before his current role, Ian worked diligently as a Project Manager (May 2003 – August 2007) and then as a Financial and IT Admin (October 2012 – December 2015). Family remains a high priority in his life. When he is not working closely with them at Comfort Keepers, he is spending time with them at home and also refereeing soccer.
Ian graduated East Stroudsburg University with a B.A in Economics. His past work experience outside of Comfort Keepers includes working in Financial Services for Vanguard, New York Life, and PNC Bank.
