Born and raised in the Traverse City area; I fell in love with water and nature early on. I graduated from Traverse City Central in 2013 and made the leap across the property line to Northwestern Michigan Community College, where I received my Arts and Science Associate's Degree in 2015. Knowing how much I loved nature, I continued my education journey at Michigan State University where I received my Bachelors Degree of Geology in 2018. Using my degree I traveled West, always with the Zillow app in hand even while out digging in the dirt. It only took one year for the family and Traverse City magnet to bring me home. In 2019 I found myself working as an Environmental Geologist here in Northern Michigan. In 2020 I bought my first home, in 2021 I proceeded to sell that home and buy my second home. I fell in love once again, but this time with the process of buying and selling Real Estate. Not forgetting my love of nature, I made the switch to Real Estate and decided to keep geology as a hobby. I worked for 6 months as an assistant to a top agent in Traverse City; constantly learning and taking notes. In December of 2021 I became fully licensed and have enjoyed working as a full time agent ever since. I am involved with the community, volunteering my time with the Women's Council of Realtors as their 2023 Program Director, and as a Big in the Big Brother's Big Sister's program for the last two years as well.

Seller Review
Joelle F, Williamsburg, MI
Carly was very easy to work with. She explained in depth why we should list the property at the price we did. And when offers came in, why going with the highest offer isn't always the best choice. I never dreamed the property would sell so quickly. Carly explained the entire process as it was happening and I couldn't be more happier with the level of service I received. I will definitely use her in the future.

Carly is THE professional for the job, after the home buying experience we had with her, I wouldn't even think about trying to work with anyone else.
