Karla's Career at Aspen

Karla  Career Path

I joined Aspen in January 2017 after years of working across several industries. I was seeking stability and an organization that I could grow with. Aspen approached me with a job opportunity and took a chance with me. My Aspen career began in Atlanta, GA, where I was assigned the role of Marketing and Leasing Consultant at an affordable community. I was blessed with a spectacular team that listened, coached, and mentored me throughout my onboarding process. Consequently, I fell in love with the ability to lease-up communities. The step-by-step team effort that eventually led to a smiling individual, couple, and family was a process that I was hooked on! After a few months, I was given the opportunity to take my skill set on the road and join the Traveling Management Team. I ventured through several successful assignments and was privileged to travel and live-in states such as Massachusetts, Michigan, and Illinois –places I had never been to before. My time on the road allowed me to experience different markets, team dynamics, and strategies. Most importantly, it allowed me to learn what makes Aspen so great –our service culture that goes above and beyond for customer satisfaction. When an opportunity arose to come off the road, I relocated to South Florida. Aspen once again, as it always does, accommodated me by offering me a permanent position at one of their properties in South Florida as a Property Manager of Aspen’s second-largest asset. I loved spending my days caring for my residents, learning a little every day, and paying it forward by mentoring my team. I was then presented with a great opportunity to join the Recruiting Department. Now, as a Talent Acquisition Specialist, I get to seek and help onboard talented and hardworking individuals that contribute to making Aspen the great company that it is.
