Michelle’s knowledge of the property management field allows her to train on any level, from leasing to high level management, with a grace and elegance that captures the attention of her audience. An exceptional speaker, Michelle is both funny and thorough, bringing the listener back “on task” agreeably and patiently.

"It is on a rare occasion that you meet someone who embodies these words.... engaging, dynamic, connected, passionate... and yet I knew this about Michelle from our first interaction, three years ago. Michelle has a skill that is not learned, but intuitive, in delivering insightful training and operational messages, whether that be via Zoom or in person. On-site Michelle has an operational prowess to navigate acquisitions, technology, team building, learning, and identify areas of opportunity. Insightful, organized, team building and energized event planning, has been a key trait witnessed in our multifamily camaraderie.
