Assistant Director
Tonya began her career in property management in 2011 for two Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) properties while serving in the US Army Reserve (2005-2018) starting as a Chemical Specialist and ending as a Drill Instructor, wearing many hats over her years of service. Through various experiences in affordable and supportive housing, she’s found her preference and passion with PSH and creative thinking - focusing on the success rates of the tenants she works with.
