What is your role at Paragon?

I am a Senior Leasing Consultant. I am in charge of showing people our beautiful community, processing applications, and taking care of our wonderful residents’ needs.

How long have you worked at Paragon?

I started at Paragon on March 30th, 2015.

What is your favorite part about working for Paragon?

My favorite part about working for Paragon is the fun atmosphere and interaction we have on a daily basis, and the appreciation I feel every single day (okay, that’s two).

What are your hobbies?

I love to play the piano, play with my parakeets, read the Bible, and watch Turkish Soap Operas with my mom.

Tell us how you began your career at Paragon?

I was living at a Paragon-managed community for four years and working at a hotel at the time as a front desk manager for ten years. A big fire happened at the apartment buildings I resided in on January 7th, 2015. My two baby parakeets and all my belongings were in the apartment. I was distraught, to say the least. The employees at Paragon not only saved my parakeets, but made sure that me and everyone else were taken care of both monetarily and mentally. I was so impressed by the level of service and sense of care that I decided to leave my job of ten years to join the Paragon family! So happy I did!

Tell us one fun fact about you:

I have been to Egypt 7 times!

What do you love most about Detroit?

I love the comradery Detroit builds in people. The loyalty to Detroit by Detroit-ers is fierce!

What is one of Detroit’s best kept secrets?

Favorite restaurant?

Big Fish in Dearborn.

Favorite place to shop?

Cantoro Italian Market in Plymouth.
