Born in the Crescent City, Kelli is a New Orleans girl that’s ventured out and returned home to continue her passion of helping people cultivate their real estate dreams. From birth, she’s been covered in beads from Daddy’s Thoth throws and, like every New Orleans child, learned the phrase, "Through me something Mister!" quite early. Whether it was spending time on the water fishing, noshing an assortment of the best king cakes in town, or enjoying a Monday night bowl of her husband’s amazing red beans, the essence of this city courses through her veins and warms her heart.
After graduating from Ursuline (Go Skips) and exploring New York, she came home to pursue a marketing degree at Tulane. It was at that time she met her husband who lived in Houston. So how do you whisk a girl away from NOLA? With good food and Love. So it was off to Texas… and that’s when it happened. In the veritable metropolis of Houston, she discovered a passion for real estate. Starting off by assisting a commercial real estate broker, she learned the art of contract negotiations, studied the property selection process, and found the unpredictable nature of the business fascinating. Suddenly, realizing she had found a career that she was enthralled by, she made the decision to pursue the more personal and emotional experience of helping residential buyers and sellers. While she still enjoys a good investment property deal, her heart lies in helping people realize their personal goals of home ownership. With over 10 years of experience and many happy clients in both Texas and Louisiana, she is as giddy about working with folks today as she has ever been.
Remember that boy she chased over to Texas? Well, after more than a decade of marriage, and living in Houston and Austin, they’ve got two beautiful boys and two four legged friends to round out their family. When they aren’t cleaning up after everyone, it’s festivals, food, fishing, and football (Geaux Tigers and Who Dat!). In an adorable house just across from City Park, they are living the crescent dream.
