We would like to introduce Jeannemarie Kane, our new Bell Tower Park Community Support Specialist. Jeannemarie is not only new to Bell Tower Park, she is new to Cardinal Management as well. She began working at BTP on September 30th, 2024, but she has been in the industry since 2017. Before Cardinal Management, she worked for two other Property Management companies in southwest Florida.
Jeannemarie has been in Florida for 7 years. She has also lived in New Jersey, Chicago, and Oakville, Canada. She has one son, Ryan. He was born in 1994 in Morristown, NJ. He has special needs and is currently living his best life with friends in Cape Coral. Jeannemarie’s extended family still lives up north, mostly in the New York/New Jersey area. She is a pet lover and has two cats – a female named Meekie and a male named Connor. Both came to her through the humane society and are a very big part of her family. She grew up having dogs, so having cats is a little different but enjoyable!
Jeannemarie’s favorite hobby is cooking. She loves being in the kitchen as it brings her endless joy and allows her to destress. She also loves to be with good friends enjoying outdoor activities or looking for new places to explore. One of her all-time favorite hobbies is finding new and delicious restaurants around southwest Florida. Jeannemarie enjoys traveling, but lately, she has been taking “staycations” instead. There are so many beautiful parts of Florida that she is always ready to explore.
Born and raised in Staten Island, NY meant working in New York City. She worked in the Financial District on Wall Street for the big banks for nearly 20 years. She has always worked in support roles, and the banks were no exception. Jeannemarie provided support to the trading floor and the sales teams until she moved to New Jersey in 1993. In NJ, she worked for a moving and storage company supporting local and international moves.
Outside of work, she has traveled quite extensively. She has been to the Caribbean, Bermuda, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, South Korea, Singapore, Tunisia, and South Africa! She has driven on the Autobahn, tried parachuting from an airplane, and went camping throughout northern Ontario in Canada. Leisure time now includes relaxing by the pool or at the beach, cooking for friends and family, and spending time at home working on condo improvements.
Jeannemarie is very happy to be at Bell Tower Park and is grateful for the opportunity to be part of the property management team. She looks forward to being at BTP for a very long time. She is always happy to help and asks everyone to be patient as the new office staff navigates all there is to learn about Bell Tower Park.
