AVTAR MOHAR
Human Resources Leader, Resident Director
Avtar and her husband relocated to The Orchards in 2020, and since then, they’ve welcomed two little ones to their family. They’ve savored every moment of the vibrant community life and the array of amenities available at The Orchards. Driven by a desire to contribute further, Avtar eagerly stepped up to join the Board of Directors. With her background in Sociology and expertise in Human Resources, she possesses a deep understanding of the dynamics that foster thriving communities. Her ability to empathize and connect with diverse perspectives ensures that every voice is heard, enriching the community experience for all residents and making a strong positive impact in this growing community. 


 Avtar and her family are all about embracing every season—they’re just as likely to be found gliding on the ice rink in winter as they are to be splashing in the spray park when the weather warms up. They love escaping to the mountains to soak up the crisp mountain air and tranquil atmosphere. Yoga is Avtar’s go-to for relaxation, squeezing in sessions whenever possible to stay centered and fit. While she’s committed to a healthy lifestyle, Avtar is also a self-proclaimed foodie and baking enthusiast. So, don’t be surprised if you catch her whipping up mouthwatering treats whenever the mood strikes!

Financial Advisor, Resident Director
My name is Lindsey MacDermott and my family and I moved into the Orchards in 2019 form BC. We were drawn to the amenities of the ORA and the community culture.

We enjoy participating in the resident events and you can often find us skating through the winter. I enjoy crafting, a warm coffee, and you might see me running the paths early in the morning.

I love the strong sense of community this neighbourhood has and I hope I can continue to build that spirit during my time on the board.

My family and I have been residents of The Orchards since December 2021. I am a journalist and economic analyst by training. I currently work as a Research and Reporting Analyst for the Federal Government of Canada. I have had articles and analyses published in the Globe and Mail, among other publications. In the community I volunteer as secretary on the Executive Board of the Devine Mercy School Council and as a member of the ORA Social Committee. I love sports (both participating and watching). As Resident Director of ORA, I am eager to help The Orchards residents by volunteering my professional and community knowledge and skills.
 Looking forward to working with the Board.
 Thanks,
