YOUR Property Management Team
Rhylie West – Property Owner Liaison

Hi, I’m Rhylie! I am thrilled to be back in the Property Management industry, and I am enjoying every minute of it! I have truly developed a passion and love for each and every property we manage, and allowing our guests to be able to enjoy them as well is the cherry on top! I have been blessed to call Saint Simons home since 2011, and there are so many hidden treasures I hope you can enjoy while vacationing with us!
Ashley Drayton – Property Services Coordinator

Hi, I’m Ashley! As the Property Services Coordinator with two years of experience, I have honed my time management skills, enabling me to coordinate tasks with both precision and efficiency. My extensive background in customer service, of seven years, equips me to communicate effectively and uphold high standards in all interactions. I am passionate about facilitating timely resolutions for guests, property owners, and property needs. Outside of work, I cherish family time, particularly enjoying games and movie nights with my daughter!
Owen Kimbal – Property Inspector

Hi, I’m Owen! I am originally from Atlanta, but over the last ten years I have called the beautiful island of St. Simons home. Growing up, I worked with my father learning to maintain, manage, and inspect properties. This experience gives me the skill set I bring to Covenant, ensuring that all of our properties are always at their peak. It is critical to carefully envision every property in detail, to make sure each guest has the absolute best experience possible during their stay. When I’m not working, you might find me fishing out on the water, or hunting in the woods. My passion for wildlife makes me an avid outdoorsman and conservationist. My loyal canine companion, Emory, is an AKC Labrador. She accompanies me on all my expeditions.
Brian Acree – Property Inspector/Maintenance

Hi, my name is Brian! I am a husband to my amazing wife, Erica, and a dad to two awesome dogs, Toby and Piper. My family and I have called St. Simons Island our home for over five years! We love taking our dogs for walks or riding our bikes on the beach, that is, when the salt air hasn’t caused another tube to go flat! I also enjoy building and flying first-person view racing/freestyle drones.
I’ve worked as a carpenter and handyman for well over a decade. That led me into the fine woodworking aspect and adding mixed-media, such as epoxy resin. I now have my own small business making items such as river and ocean tables, wall décor, serving boards, and more.
I feel blessed that God led my path to Covenant, a company whose beliefs align with my own..I look forward to continuing to make sure properties are up to Covenant’s standards before our guests’ stay and to fix all of the things that may go wrong along the way!
Brittany O’Neil – Onboarding Specialist

Hi, I’m Brittany! Originally from Cincinnati, OH, I happily made St. Simons Island home after my now husband introduced me to this very special place in 2016. My 15+ years in marketing, management and rental properties coupled with my passion for relationships, communication and attention to detail allows me to really hone in on a customer’s experience! I’m excited to find our guests and tenants a property that checks off all the boxes for them. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling with my husband, Braxten and spending time at the beach with our two pups, Ryder and Chesney. We are extremely excited and blessed to take on our newest adventure in parenthood soon, as we are expecting our first little beach bum in October!
Lorena Alverez – Housekeeping Manager

Hi, I’m Lorena! I am a lover of cleanliness and organization. After my mother, Ester and my dad, Bady spent 16 years in the cleaning industry, I learned from them all the techniques I needed to open Atlanticview Cleaning Services with my husband, Hector. We truly love every property we clean, and we make sure that guest and owner satisfaction is always our top priority. Now, we have the privilege of being the only cleaning company that takes care of all Covenant properties. As Covenant’s housekeeping manager, I welcome you to the Golden Isles!
Amanda O’Neil – Operations Manager

Hi, I’m Amanda! As an Operations Manager with 10 years of experience in customer service and 2+ years in property management, I bring a strong background in streamlining operations and optimizing customer experiences. My strong attention to detail guides my problem-solving approach, allowing me to deliver efficient solutions and maintain high standards in every project.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Gray, and our dog, Rainier. We love hiking, camping, biking, and going on road trips, and we often unwind by watching movies or enjoying a glass of wine or whiskey together.
Braxten O’Neil – Owner / CEO

Hi, I’m Braxten! A little bit about me. I spent the last five years as Chief Operating Officer of a fast-growing marketing organization. With 15+ years in the service industry, I humbly bring extensive business operations knowledge through the lens of customer experience. I’ve owned and rented properties locally for the past five years, sparking my decision to jump into my real passion – property management.
In my spare time, you can catch me spending time with my wife Brittany, two dogs, Ryder and Chesney, fishing, camping, traveling, shooting, and of course hanging out at the beach.
