Jennifer began her property management career in 1991 where she worked for a large management corporation. During her tenure there, she advanced to Director of Leasing where she oversaw 15 large properties and headed a team of 50+ leasing associates. In 2002, she started as an employee at Guardian Property Management (formerly the Poseidon Companies) and then purchased the company later that same year. Since purchasing the company, Jennifer’s business plan has focused on growth through continued exceptional customer service. As a result, Guardian Property Management began with 127 units and has grown to currently over 800 units.
The number of owners partnering with GPM increased from 30 at the beginning to over 250 today. She has expanded her staff and company capability from 4 to 21. With a staff of 21, the company has been recognized for their excellence in recent years with MADACS awards for Best Leasing and Best Team. Jennifer is an active member of the real estate community.
