Jennifer Rickenbaugh, who first came to Glen Oaks Village in 1994 as the Morning Receptionist, worked her way up through the ranks to her current General Manager position. After being promoted to Shareholder Representative and later Supervisor of the Shareholder Representatives, in 2002, Jennifer became our Property Manager. This title enabled her to gain valuable real estate management experience, as well as, a more in depth understanding of Office Personnel Management. Each year, Jennifer has also broadened her understanding of Real Estate Law, Rent Stabilization Guidelines and Landlord-Tenant Law, as she attended seminars and worked to resolve the many resident issues presented weekly. Her strong customer service skills and ability to defuse heated situations are Jenniferâ€™s most valuable assets--especially when it comes to resident mediations, Tenant-Landlord court procedures, evictions and unit inspections. Jennifer will continue her previous involvement in the renovation and sale of unoccupied apartments, where she has always strived to increase the overall value of our property. One of her first goals in her new position was to streamline the Maintenance Services Department, which enabled it to run more efficiently. Jennifer welcomes Residents to contact her office with any questions or concerns they may have.

Gina Catania first joined the Glen Oaks Village's Management Office staff as a Shareholder Representative in October, 2003. Due to her excellent customer service and organizational skills, along with her ability to resolve Resident's problems, Gina soon assumed the Administrative position, handling Rent-Stabilized Tenants and Rent-Stabilized Tenant Garages. Over the next 10 years, Gina continued to work closely with our former Property Manager and attorneys, gaining valuable knowledge of Tenant-Landlord law, mediations, eviction and court procedures. Another important aspect of her duties was her interaction with the Glen Oaks Village's Tenant Association, NYC Rent Stabilization Association (RSA) and Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR), which kept her current on Rent Stabilization and Housing Laws. Gina was also heavily involved with the Windows Installation Program. As Property Manager, in addition to overseeing our Shareholder Representative, Receptionist and Maintenance Services Departments, she is involved with the renovation and sale of our vacated units. Gina is often seen out and about, inspecting apartments, vestibules and common areas, in response to Residents' needs and requests while always ensuring the Board's policies and procedures are correctly implemented.

Alejandro Mota

Maintenance Operations Manager

After working a few summers as a Seasonal Landscaper, in May 2006 Alejandro “Richie” Mota was hired full time as an Assistant Handyman. Over the last 15 years, he spent time working under Handymen in the different departments, gaining knowledge and valuable trade experience. After becoming a Carpentry Handyman, he proved to be an asset, assisting in the coordination of

the Property-Wide Window Replacement Program, which installed almost 18,000 windows throughout the Village. Over the years, Richie’s dependability to multi-task, while remaining calm, but focused during the most stressful situations, have earned him promotions to Site Supervisor, Associate Manager and in 2021, to Maintenance Operations Manager. In addition to overseeing GOVO’s many Capital Improvement Projects, his expanded responsibilities now include the supervision of the various Maintenance Departments.
