Summary

Passion for people and property management. With over five years of property management experience and a background in behavioral health. California Certified Residential Manager by the San Francisco Apartment Association was one of the many titles I earned, including People Award Winner in 2022, awarded by Veritas Investments, and fifth place out of 280 properties for resident event engagement in 2022, awarded by Veritas Investments. I strongly commit to organizational processes, resident engagement, communication, and teamwork. Demonstrated strong resident retention across properties, achieved by engaging residents through events, fostering positive relations, and maintaining properties and amenities in prime condition. Experienced in working through logistics of remodeling large buildings while residents are still on site. Skilled in bringing teams and vendors together to help reduce the amount of impact to residents.
