Why Carly?

So who is this random real estate agent sending you a newsletter? Great

question! Here is the simple answer -- I’m a young professional advocating for a

better tomorrow.

 

What a loaded statement right? But it’s 100% true. Advocating for a better

tomorrow, starts with lending a helping hand today. I believe everyone deserves

to have a house they call home because, it’s so much more than that.

We are all fighters in our own ways, and we all deserve a place to feel safe from

the rest of the world. And that is what I stand for. You need a shoulder to cry on?

 

A helping hand or an ear to borrow? I’m here.

Now back to the original question...why Carly? You should pick me because I’m a

problem solver. I can pivot faster than a door on hinges. I will out work every

person next to me, whether they are 24 or 60. Age doesn’t define success,

competence and hard work does. I may not have 25 years of experience but what

I do have is AI experience, marketing skills, adaptability, fluent use of social

media, flexibility and confidence.

And if that was not enough information on me, well here is some more!

I am originally from Hampstead, Maryland. I moved to Charleston to attend the

College of Charleston in 2019, where I rushed the sorority Kappa Alpha Theta. Igraduated with a B.A. in Communications and a minor in psychology.

I have one brother named Cam, and a sister in-law named Darcy! We all own

german short-hair pointers and I’m pretty sure it’s a personality trait at this

point. I also have a miniature long/wired-haired dachshund named Millie. She is

the light of my life.

 

I have worked many jobs, from being a logistics broker to serving in a fine dining

restaurant, every job taught me valuable skills to relay into my career as a real

estate agent. I used to cold call 75 people every day as my first “big girl” job out

of college. Trust me when I say I will out work every person around me.

I am a Baltimore Ravens fan through and through, and you cannot convince me

Lamar Jackson isn’t the man. Don’t even try it won’t happen. I’m a huge

volleyball fan, I grew up playing and now I am getting into coaching.

Did you know...

An estimated 316,950 women and 2,800 men will be diagnosed with invasive

breast cancer in 2025, plus 59,080 new cases of non-invasive breast cancer.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the U.S., excluding

skin cancers.

There are currently over 4 million breast cancer survivors in the U.S.

About 42,170 women will die from breast cancer in 2025.

Women with a family history of breast cancer have nearly twice the risk of

developing it themselves.

Breast cancer mortality is about 40% higher in Black women compared to White

women.

1 in 8 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime.

Early detection through mammography and breast exams remains the best

defense against advanced breast cancer.
