Cheryl Lang, Property Manager at Phoenix Manor
4 years Activity Director, 8 years Leasing Manager/Activity Director,
4 years Property Manager (16 years)
Phoenix Manor is an independent living apartment complex for 55 years or better. We have 450 units on 25 acres. Member of Crime Free Program, Maryvale Apartment Coalition.
Personal info: Single mother of 27 year old daughter who teaches English in the Tolleson High School District and 10 year foster daughter who both have been a member of the Phoenix Manor family. My oldest daughter started coming to activities at 10 years old and have enjoyed the seniors caring attitude towards her and treated her as if she was one their own grandchildren. And now my youngest has been coming to Phoenix Manor since 2 mos. old where the “grandmas” would take turns holding her and now watch as she becomes a young girl at the same place where my oldest started visiting here.
I enjoy working with the senior population because I have found over the years that many of our residents have such a diverse background, who remember a simpler time with fewer luxuries than we have now. Listening to the stories about their lives, families, work and more is such an opportunity for me to gain a perspective about what is important in life. They remind me what customer service is really all about and how to remain and have that human interaction even in our technological age we live in now. I look forward to many years as the manager at Phoenix Manor and hope I do not ever stop learning.
