Our Story

We Started This Because It Mattered

Golden Age Transport was founded on a simple belief — that every patient deserves to travel with dignity, and every family deserves peace of mind.

Our Story

Golden Age Transport was founded in 2026 by Meisam (Mase) Kazerani with a simple belief: every person deserves to be treated with dignity, compassion, and respect—especially during life's most vulnerable moments.

After more than 15 years leading businesses in operations, client service, and project management, Mase recognized a growing need in Orange County's senior community. Too many older adults and individuals with mobility challenges were struggling with unreliable transportation, missed appointments, long wait times, and a lack of communication that left families worried about their loved ones. Having built his career around creating systems, solving problems, and putting people first, Mase set out to create something different: a transportation company that combines professionalism, reliability, and genuine human care.

Golden Age Transport was founded not simply to move people from one location to another, but to provide peace of mind. Every ride is approached with the understanding that behind each passenger is a family member, a caregiver, or a loved one who wants to know that someone they care about is safe and being treated with kindness. Today, Golden Age Transport is committed to serving seniors, assisted living communities, memory care facilities, and individuals with mobility needs throughout Orange County. Our mission remains simple: To provide safe, dependable, and compassionate transportation while treating every passenger like family. Because transportation should never be a barrier to receiving care, maintaining independence, or living with dignity.
