Tell us about your career:

I began working in the multi-family industry in 2020 in student housing. During my time there I learned one of the most critical skills for this industry which is adaptability. This skill set was and still is a stepping stone to my success. I shortly after transitioned into conventional housing as a Leasing Professional with Greystar where I worked on the Floating Team assisting over 60+ sites in my region. I was then promoted to Floating Assistant Manager as I was able to prove my strong adaptability skills as a critical asset to the on-site teams success. After a little over a year floating, I was encouraged to join the Corporate Marketing Team as this was my true passion and calling where I am able to really showcase my full-color wheel of talents to support leasing efforts through tactical and creative marketing strategies.
