Her vast experience in real estate has made her priceless to first-time investors as they embark on their investment path. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Health and Human Performance with a focus on education from Austin Peay State University. She then became a high school health teacher and cheerleading coach. Eventually, she connected that she had a genuine desire to mentor, coach, and develop children of all ages through cheerleading. She opened her own gym which served over 100 children, ages varying from K-12, many of which stayed with her establishment throughout their developmental years. During this time, Kate grew her gym via social media as it was becoming mainstream giving her an extensive history of successful digital marketing. Paired with her knack for creating and implementing systems, her competitive cheer gym was thriving. This experience was the perfect segue into the real estate industry. She eventually made the decision to sell her gym in order to focus on her 2 boys as they grew into adulthood. She soon developed a transaction coordination department where she had her fingers in roughly 100 transactions per year, which led to her promotion to Director of Operations for a top-producing real estate team. This role honed her natural abilities in training new agents, coaching seasoned agents, and implementing systems to increase efficiency. After realizing that real estate had other facets that aligned with her values, she decided to earn her real estate license and broaden her focus.
