Summary

Knowledgeable Community Director with strong track record in helping maximize occupancy rates and reduce turnover through positive communication and skilled community management. Throughout seven years of experience in property management, I've learned to connect positively with residents to keep accounts current and residents satisfied. Skilled at providing team leadership that encourages employees to thrive. In 2017, I decided to become a stay-at-home mom to focus on my new family. We are now a family of five. I am eager to return to work and dedicate myself to providing exceptional management.
