Philip Montoya
(Office Assistant)
Philip was born in 1964, but if you ask how old he is he will tell you 14. He resets to 14 every year on Valentines day. He grew up in Encino NM and lived there until he moved to Las Cruces in 2005. He started working at Atrium shortly after he moved. He lives with his sister and brother-in-law, Atrium owners Elaine and Dennis Prickett, and mom. Philip loves going to work everyday where he can help his fellow co-workers. It is not unusual to see Philip dancing with patients and staff. He knows how to cut a rug! He loves to dust and shred paper and gets upset if he does not get to go to work. Philip has introduced his own language into Atrium that are referred to as Philip-isms, many of which you may hear if you listen closely to our staff as they interact with each other. His favorite past times are singing at church, eating out, watching “I Love Lucy” DVDs and playing hide and seek.
