What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values operational efficiency and community engagement.

I am a dedicated property management professional with over 7 years of experience in managing residential communities. My journey has equipped me with a robust skill set in overseeing budgets, supervising staff, and coordinating vendor services. I pride myself on my ability to foster strong community relationships and maintain compliance, ensuring a safe and well-managed environment for residents.

In my current role as an Assistant Property Manager at Greystar, I oversee daily property operations, manage Requests for Proposals (RFPs), and ensure timely payment and service delivery from vendors. My commitment to operational efficiency is evident in my successful implementation of streamlined billing processes, which improved on-time collections by 20%. I also take great pride in training and mentoring staff, cultivating a high-performing team that consistently delivers exceptional service.
