Carolyn Stringer

Office Administrator, Executive Assistant to CEO

I feel extremely privileged to be working at Luken Holdings. After working for The Krystal Company for 12 years, I retired and one week later, started as Office Coordinator and Executive Assistant to the President and CEO of Luken Holdings. Our staff of 10 very efficiently manages an estimated 3 million square feet of real estate.

My BS degree in Business has served me well in my various jobs in administration and management from oil wells to hamburgers to real estate, broadening my knowledge in each industry. Here at Luken Holdings my day to day duties involve the smooth flow of operations within the office, as well as editor of the Luken Holdings news letter.

During my career, I have been fortunate to work for highly visible CEOs who travel nationwide and abroad, with heavy involvement within the community. My first administrative job in Chattanooga was with Chattanooga Glass in Alton Park. Working for these CEO's, has opened many doors to me and lasting friendships in our community have evolved.

My personal motto has always been "whatever it takes to get the job done". I'm certain success of any assignment is good follow-through to completion of the project, whether it be an appointment for someone in the office or an important project with a rapidly approaching deadline to meet.

My family moved several times in earlier years until we decided to call our beautiful Scenic City our home. After owning Overhead Door Co. for 15 years, my husband Scott retired and spends many hours in volunteering for non-profits close to his heart. Our son Myron is a Sr. Trainer with Unum and our son-in-law Rob and 3 grandchildren live in Alpharetta, GA. We're all huge Auburn fans, so don't even think of yelling "Go Vols", or "Roll Tide" around us!!

Lynda Childress, President/CEO says Carolyn Stringer is priceless. She is very professional in everything that she does and we all depend on her to keep things flowing. As a person, she is a woman of excellence, integrity, consistency, trustworthiness and dependability. I rely on her daily and would not know what to do without her. We are blessed to have her working with us and hope to keep her for years to come.
