Celebrating 10 years with Coastal Ridge! 🎉 Kevin Pierce started his journey with us as a part-time Community Assistant at West Run Apartments, and over the past decade, he has grown into a valued leader whose dedication and hard work embody the Coastal Ridge spirit. A standout moment for Kevin was attending his first Elevate conference as an Assistant Property Manager—a pivotal experience that helped propel him to Property Manager shortly thereafter. Reflecting on his journey, Kevin highlights that persistence, attention to detail, and a willingness to step in and learn have been key to his growth. Thank you, Kevin, for 10 years of commitment, leadership, and impact—we’re excited to see what the next decade brings!

Another Elevate conference is in the books! This year’s theme, Gameplan for Greatness, had our teams fired up with powerful conversations and winning strategies for growth. We celebrated big with an after-party at Ohio Stadium and were inspired by Archie Griffin, who shared: “TEAM: Together, everyone achieves more." Here’s to the people who make progress possible—we’re ready to tackle the next play!
