With a diverse background and a passion for serving her clients, Kate is your ideal partner in navigating the real estate market of Hampshire County and beyond.
Kate’s journey to real estate is as unique as it is impressive. Growing up on a sprawling thoroughbred horse farm in northern Maryland instilled in her a strong work ethic and a deep appreciation for land and property. Her early years were spent immersed in the daily operations of a 120+ acre farm, providing a foundation of practical skills and a hands-on approach that she brings to her real estate career. Experiences in diverse locales, from the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, where she worked leading horse-guided trips, to the low country of South Carolina and the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, have shaped her understanding of different landscapes and lifestyles, enriching her perspective as a realtor.
Before transitioning to real estate, Kate dedicated 13 years to public service as a Firefighter/Paramedic with the Fauquier County Department of Fire Rescue Emergency Management in Virginia. Her role demanded quick thinking, adaptability, and exceptional customer service – skills that seamlessly translate to the fast-paced world of real estate. Recognition from Battalion Chief Lorenzen, who praised her “top notch” work and customer service that consistently went “above and beyond,” underscores her commitment to excellence and client satisfaction. This background in emergency services highlights her ability to remain calm under pressure, problem-solve effectively, and prioritize the needs of those she serves – qualities that are incredibly beneficial when guiding clients through significant real estate transactions.
Her commitment to the community extends beyond her professional roles. Kate is a lifetime and active volunteer member of Little Fork Volunteer Fire and Rescue Company, with over 20 years of service, demonstrating her ongoing dedication to helping others and her strong community ties. Now residing in the Appalachian Mountains of Hampshire County, West Virginia, Kate is fully immersed in the local area, working full-time at Pioneer Ridge Realty and contributing to the community she calls home. Alongside her real estate career, she actively participates in farm life with her husband and cherishes time with their daughter, further grounding her in the values of home and family that resonate with many property buyers and sellers.
