Before beginning her adventure in real estate, she was a pharmaceutical sales representative and a chemistry teacher at Gatesville High School. Since getting her real estate license, she has been a multi-million dollar producer each year. A 2014 GRI graduate and a 2016 graduate of the Texas REALTORS® Leadership Program, she is on top of current trends and is always looking for new and innovative ways to market. As she believes it is important to give back to her profession, Kandi is currently serving as Secretary of the Fort Hood Area Association of Realtors Board of Directors and was recently appointed to serve on the Central Texas MLS Advisory Council as they transition to a new regional MLS system.
Kandi is also actively involved in her community; she is a founding member of the Coryell County Area Go Texan scholarship committee, serves on the Coryell County A&M Club Board of Directors and is a Director on the Coryell County Economic Development Board. Kandi is a 1996 graduate of Texas A&M University and is a huge fan of Aggie football. When not on the phone with a client, her hobbies include spending time outdoors, reading, watching her kids play sports and attending stock shows with family. Kandi is married to Brian and they have two children, Braden, a junior and Hailey, an 8th grader.
Strengths:
“WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP” ATTITUDE-great working relationship with other agents, lenders, appraisers, escrow officers and more to get the job done for her client
