What do you do at Lewis and what does a typical day look like?
Phuong: I recently was blessed with a promotion to Business Manager at Homecoming at Creekside. I mainly handle our community’s rents and accounting items, but you can catch me occasionally jumping on the Leasing floor to help. My typical day always starts with a nice cup of coffee and then lining up the team to make sure they know that their day looks like. I’m the designated DJ for our office so I get the responsibility of playing the right jams to pump everyone up for an awesome workday.
What has your career path looked like?
Phuong: I started with Lewis back in 2017 as the receptionist for Homecoming at Creekside. I worked really hard to absorb all that I could about Lewis and property management. Soon after, I was promoted to the Community Administrator where I further developed my skills. After mastering my role as the Community Administrator, I became the Assistant Community Director at Carmel at Woodcreek West. That was a completely different playing field—I had to manage sales on top of everything I did as the Community Admin. It was a wholesome experience, though, as it ultimately prepared me to come back as the Business Manager for Homecoming at Creekside.

What drew you to working at Lewis?
How do you stay busy outside of the office?
Phuong: I firmly believe in self-care and doing whatever it is that provides you that mental clarity. Everyone who works for Lewis knows that our day-to-day can be demanding. Some of the things I like to do outside of the office include hiking, finding new places to explore, going on walks, training for marathons, grabbing a nice book and going to a coffee shop to read, and eating! I am a big foodie so trying out new foods is probably my main thing.
