Top 1.5%? Coincidentally, 1.5 was also my GPA at the .
It could be argued that real estate was the natural career path for me. It just took me a while to figure that out.
I was a horrible student. The second professors stopped taking attendance, I stopped showing up. You could usually find me rowing on the Ashley, hanging out at Brittlebank Marina, spending entirely too much time at Station 28 on Sullivan’s, or doing literally anything besides going to class.
By my second semester at CofC, I landed on academic probation. My GPA that semester was a 0.6. (Yes, you read that right.)
Ironically, that ended up being one of the best things that ever happened to me. Somewhere along the way, I managed to talk my way into becoming a peer leader for other students on probation. It was the first time I realized my strengths weren’t sitting quietly in a classroom… or quietly anywhere.
Turns out there are careers where being competitive, stubborn, creative, resourceful, and able to talk to absolutely anyone are actually valuable skills.
Today I found out I’m RealTrends Verified and ranked among the top 1.5% of Realtors nationwide. Not bad for the girl who spent most of college doing everything except studying.
To every client, friend, mentor, referral partner, and person who trusted me with one of the biggest decisions of their life—thank you.
And to all the teachers who spent years trying to get me to stop talking… look who’s getting paid for it now.
Big growth on the horizon in 2026, and if I’m being honest, I’m equal parts excited and completely overwhelmed.
Stay chatty!
Hugs,
CK
