From humble beginnings to becoming a trusted transportation provider in Seattle
Ride Aide LLC was founded in 2015 by Michael Rodriguez, who saw firsthand the transportation challenges faced by his grandmother after she began using a wheelchair. What started as a single wheelchair-accessible van and a commitment to helping one person has grown into a fleet of vehicles serving hundreds of clients throughout the Seattle area.
Our founder's personal experience with accessibility challenges inspired a business built on empathy, understanding, and a genuine desire to make a difference in people's lives.
