From the moment you walk through our doors, you’re greeted with a warm smile—and that’s all thanks to our amazing receptionist Tikela! She plays a vital role in keeping our community running smoothly and welcoming everyone who walks in.
A typical day at the front desk includes answering phones, greeting residents, families, and guests, and keeping everyone informed about the day’s activities. One of her favorite parts of her job is seeing the residents’ faces light up each morning when she arrives—it’s a simple joy that makes her role so meaningful.
At home, Tikela is kept busy by her lovable bulldog, Bolo. She is a proud mom to two daughters Kenedi and Zoey. They love to travel together, especially taking cruises. Tikela has been with her wonderful partner Joe for 12 years. She also enjoys cooking, listening to music, and unwinding with a good scary movie. Most of all, she enjoys spending time with her best friend, her mom Mildred.
We’re so grateful for the warmth, kindness, and positive energy she brings to our community every single day. Next time you stop by the front desk, be sure to say hello—you’ll likely leave smiling too!
