Tell us about your career:

I began property management nine years ago. I started out as a leasing consultant with no experience and within five years I was a multi-site property manager with three properties in the downtown Raleigh market. I currently work for Highmark Residential as a community Director in Cary and I train and Mentor new hires. I love training new and existing employees and seeing them grow, that is definitely one of my favorite parts of my job.


I am a member of the TAA, I am a Director on the Board of Directors for New Lease on Life, I also serve on the New Lease on Life services committee, recently started inquiring about joining the membership committee for the AANC.
