Schnitzer Properties Staff Spotlight: Meet Brian Spencer—Schnitzer Properties HVAC Technician Lead, baseball dad, and retired volunteer radio DJ.   Brian Spencer heads the HVAC department for Schnitzer Properties in the Las Vegas region, which keeps him and his team busy in the Nevada heat. He says his favorite thing about working for Schnitzer Properties is the company's family-first philosophy, fostered by President and CEO Jordan Schnitzer. "It's home away from home, and we're like a family around here," Spencer said. "It's not one of those places where you get out of bed going, 'Nah, man, I don't want to go to work today.' I look forward to coming to work, facing challenges, and making our tenants happy. Jordan takes great care of us—he's a family-minded guy, and it's just a great place to work." Speaking of family, Spencer and his wife Lisa have three adult kids—sons Shane and Andrew and daughter Taylor. Shane recently signed a baseball contract with the Billings Mustangs in Montana, an independent league affiliated with Major League Baseball. In addition to his role as an outstanding HVAC Technician Lead for Schnitzer Properties, Spencer is also a music aficionado. He and Lisa recently bought a record store, and before that, he was a volunteer radio DJ for 23 years. He was recently nominated for the Nevada Broadcasters Hall of Fame for his work on a weekend blues music show.
