As a woman in the car business, I see things differently than most. It is a occupation dominated by men. I love the challenge and enjoy bringing a different set of views to my customers. Growing up my dream was not to be working in the automotive industry and yet here I am. The dream that I thought was supposed to be something different is being realized. When I started helping people over 17 years ago find car solutions to their car problems, I never imagined that life as the "Carlady" could be so fulfilling. Make no mistake that my customers help me as much as they think I help them.
Over the years I have been acquiring information and learning from others that have walked before me about all aspects of the car buying, selling, leasing, wholesaling and financing. There is so much information out there to be sorted through. That is just one of the ways that I try to help others. I try to learn from my own mistakes and the mistakes of others. The passion that drives me motivates me to help my clients "drive their dream".
“Building a dream career is not always what we picture it to be. I am so grateful that mine was not what I pictured. I love what I do.”—This passage is really impressive, Katie. Fate has reasons why such things happen to us. It's good to hear that what fate brought you the happiness that you never quite imagined. And it makes you help others to pursue their dream, like having the car of their dreams.

I was really moved by your story, Katie. Being a car agent is really a tough job. And you should be proud that are able to go with the flow, and I can see that you're good with it. And that you are able to make people learn how to deal with their car problems. :-)

It's great that you found happiness in your job, even though it is not really your dream job. Anyway, is that your car behind you? You have a pretty good taste on picking a car. Well, since your car dealer you should definitely have that kind of skill on choosing the best and ideal car, right?
