Executive Admin Assistant
After graduating from the University of Michigan, I started my life of moves from NYC to DC, which led to meeting my spouse, who had just graduated from the USNA and was based in Virginia Beach with the Navy. After 20 years in sales and management, 6 military moves and 3 kids, we finally settled in Tampa. After 25 years of military life, we are home.
Marketing Director
I graduated from the University of South Florida with a Mass Communications Degree with a concentration in Advertising and a Minor in Entrepreneurship. During my time at USF I gained experience by holding a Marketing Intern position with the USF Athletics Department. I am always eager to learn more about my field and gain experience which is what led me to apply and receive the Marketing Internship with Kilene Kelly Group my final semester of college. I then transitioned into my now full-time role as the Marketing Director where I have the opportunity to express my creativity, use my skills, and learn about the wonderful world of Real Estate every day
General Administrative Assistant
I’m a Tallahassee native that ventured to the Tampa Bay area to pursue an academic career at the University of South Florida. While at USF, I majored in Marketing and was a part of the Bulls Business Network. I gained relevant experience in Marketing while holding a position of a CRM Data Analyst Assistant position in the Admissions Office where I oversaw data evaluation, processing, and deletion. I held my assistant position for nearly 3 years before I graduated Magna Cum Laude, December 2020. It is because of my diligent efforts that allowed me to be given the opportunity to work for the Kilene Kelly Group and help them administratively with their CRM as well. I am grateful and ecstatic that I could become a well-needed asset for them to grow their business and look forward to what’s to come.
Marketing Intern
As an Advertising and Public Relations student at the University of Tampa, I am constantly gaining knowledge that I use every day as a Marketing Intern with The Kilene Kelly Group. Most of my advertising and marketing skills come from working with my brother on his business. There I was able to practice creating graphics, social media, and content branding. I am excited to grow and learn here as a Marketing Intern with The KKG.
