What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role where I can combine account management, team leadership, marketing, writing, and photography while supporting evolving business needs and responsible financial operations.

At The Cottages On Lindberg, I manage more than $500,000 in monthly income across 700 resident accounts while delivering strong customer service.

I oversee financial move-outs, apartment inspections, damage charges, evictions, and court testimony in compliance with Indiana State Law. I also lead leasing professionals and help lease the community to 98%.

My creative background includes building local advertising relationships and designing client ads for The Times, alongside managing advertising billing. As a photographer for the Washington Times Herald, I capture community and sports moments for an audience of more than 20,000 people.

I bring copywriting, marketing, photography, and fiscal responsibility to evolving digital marketing needs, with a focus on keeping teams motivated and work organized.
