What started as a part-time job quickly evolved into a passionate career. Kelly advanced from Deal Conveyance to mastering Finance & Accounting, gaining full understanding of real estate transactions.

Kelly’s expertise is unmatched—ask her anything about building a robust Back Office, and there’s a 99% chance she has the perfect solution. Her Human Resources Management Degree further amplifies her people management and leadership skills.
