THE HQ TEAM
While our wonderful site staff keeps the Peak communities running smoothly day to day, our team at the Peak Headquarters works behind the scenes (and sometimes on the front lines) to make sure everyone has the tools and resources they need. If you can’t tell, we do like to have fun here at Peak!
Bob Lenz
President
Bob’s adventurous streak was sparked by his gold medal win in the 1996 inaugural X-Games for extreme upside-down whitewater kayaking. After a long stint as the only American born Sherpa working on Mt. Everest and traveling the world as lead instructor for B.A.D.A.S.S. Flyers – Blindfolded Aerial Dueling Acrobatic Student Stunt, Bob returned home to Michigan to cross another item off his bucket list – starting his own company. Peak Management has been a dream come true. Meet his fabulous staff below.
Michael Mansoor
Controller
Michael appears to be a well-adjusted family man who successfully wrangles Peak’s multifaceted finances, but we’ve had an inkling of his double life from day one. We’ll never fully know the extent of his carefully concealed, cave-dwelling alter-ego existence, but we’re proud of his dark knight good deeds. No joke.
Jason Bartley
Design & Technology Manager
In his late teens, Jason escaped an international hacking scandal by seeking refuge at a remote ashram in India. Years later, he returned to the modern world in a state of tranquil enlightenment. At Peak Management, he fulfills his divine mission to promote peace and harmony between man and machine. Namaste.
Tiffany Vaxelaire
Director of Property Management Operations
Tiffany opened up her first lemonade stand at the tender age of four. After perfecting her recipe for sweet tea in college, she started the Southern Belle Sweet Tea Company, which earned distinction as the official White House beverage during the Bush years. Tiffany joins the team here at Peak Management fresh from the sale of her secret recipe to Snapple!
Brad Behrens
Regional Maintenance Manager
Brad to the rescue! We won’t go into the details, but when a Peak team-building event went awry and numerous staff found themselves marooned on an island in the middle of the Detroit River, Brad single-handedly saved the day. He rescued struggling swimmers, repaired the electric surfboards, and caught, cleaned, and fried fifty pounds of fresh fish. Lucky for us, Brad was coaxed away from his isolated island retreat to oversee the meticulous maintenance of Peak’s pristine properties.
Carrie Rinehart
Human Resources Director
Carrie’s passion for coffee and cooking led to her winning entry in the Girl Scout Cookie Creator Contest. Her Coconut Cacao Craze was an instant hit, out-selling Thin Mints for the first time in history, but parents protested about the java-jittery effect on their young children. Carrie later recruited a caffeinated crew to introduce her coffee-infused confections to college campuses and corporations worldwide. Peak Management is thrilled to bring this bold barista on board to fuel our business.
Tetyana Legunyak
Marketing & Social Media Coordinator
Tetyana’s early childhood years were spent touring through Europe with a renowned Ukrainian folk dance ensemble. Her gravity-defying leaps and intricate footwork caused an enormous stir amongst audiences wherever they went. Although Tetyana may no longer be dancing on stage, she approaches her marketing role at Peak Management with the same level of passion and artistry that once defined her performances.
Julie Tirony
Accounting
Julie has returned to Michigan from her long sabbatical to the frozen tundra of the great white north. Using the skills acquired from her time as the Curling champion of the Northwest Territories, she will sweep away financial obstacles and smooth the path forward for Peak Management.
Christine Gilbert
Accounting & Payroll
As a toddler, Christine was caught using her tiny safety scissors to transform her family’s houseplants. Later, she was outed as the Edward Scissorhands of Detroit, transforming overgrown bushes on vacant properties into an urban jungle of art. These days, she channels her magic into trimming the Peak Management budget, but have no fear, she recruited a succession of Japanese bonsai exchange students to continue her whimsical beautification of the Motor City.
Margo Mina
Office Manager
Margo’s ten-year streak as Midwest Mom’s Bowling Champ was impressive enough, but she upped the game by inventing the first Magic Mood bowling ball using heat sensing technology. The morphing colors mystified her competitors, and soon everyone was clamoring for their very own Magic Mood ball. Peak Management is fortunate to have Margo in our office, greeting guests, caring for our space, and brightening everyone’s mood on a daily basis.
