TIFFANY AGUILAR, Owner

Tiffany grew up in Sisters and graduated from the University of Oregon before heading to San Francisco, where she worked in marketing for leading advertising agencies and tech companies. But her heart stayed in Central Oregon. She purchased a home in Bend and rented it out until she and her husband could return.

Her experience as a rental property owner gave Tiffany firsthand insight into what owners need from a management company—and where service can fall short. That perspective inspired her to help build EPM around attentive service, clear communication, and care for each property.

Tiffany and her husband have two boys and three much-loved pets. Outside of work, she enjoys scuba diving, reading, and cheering on the Oregon Ducks!

He brought his property management experience to Central Oregon with a commitment to giving owners and residents the responsive service and positive experience they deserve.

Outside of work, Brian enjoys hiking, mountain biking, kayaking, camping, and relaxing with a beer at a local brewery.

Jessica Moyle, Leasing Agent

Originally from the East Coast, Jessica began her career in New York City as a technology product manager, using software to improve operations. That work sparked her love of efficient processes and strong teams, but she eventually found herself ready for a change from city life.

Jessica started as EPM’s Operations Coordinator before moving into her current role as Leasing Agent. Her understanding of our operations, organizational skills, and attention to detail help her guide prospective residents through the leasing process and into their new homes.

Outside of work, Jessica enjoys spending time with her husband and son, camping, hiking, cross-country skiing, practicing yoga, and cheering on Penn State.
