Hi! My name is Jolene Sopalski I'm a native of Orange Park Fl with the exception of a two year extended visit to Cedar City UT and Provo UT. If you have not been to Moab UT or Zion National Park I highly recommend you to go it is worth the trip and if you can you should go to Cedar City and take a drive up Cedar Mountain maybe pull over and have a "poor man dinner" with a small fire and watch the stars.
I'm the oldest of five children, yes I did just say five, I know crazy huh?!?! When I was 18 I lost my father to lung cancer which just happen to be during my senior year in high school which I did not attend to and took my GED, so that I was able to take my dad to his doctor appointments and work full time to help my family. I have always had a very strong work ethic about me which I contribute to both my parents. My daddy always said " Jo Beth if you want anything out of life you have to work 110% to get it". I have always kept that in mined and apply it to my self in everything I do. My dad also said I was stubborn as anything and would argue that the sky was green even if I knew it was blue just so I can have the last word. I think that is what makes me great at sales and my bubbly personality.
I started working when I was 15 at a local car wash and have held many positions from waitress, trouble youth consular, sales associate, photographer, leasing specialist to now an Assistant Community Manager. I loved all the places that I work and everything that I learn from them I still use today in what I'm doing as an Assistant Community Manager at a affordable senior independent living community.
I have found this past year that I really love showing someone how to become a better leasing agent or how to market there community in a different way. I know now that I would love to become a Trainer for a Multifamily Management Company. So I have given my self a time line to achieve this 3 years! In 3 years I will become a Trainer with a Multifamily Management Company. Watch out Multifamily world you have not seen anything yet. This year I will be taking my NALP and CAM, I was just told the other day that after I have the certifications my regional sees no reason why I should not be a property manager by the end of the year. So I'm looking forward to that prospect!
A friend of mine Johnathan Sar suggested I start a blog of my writing that I normally post on Multifamily Insiders so I thought why not! I love to write and what better way to reach more people with what I have to say then by having a blog! So look forward to more blogs on how to relate to customers, employees and the vendors to come from me. Thank You so much for reading my blog. Now it is time for me to go and have ice cream with my children!
