After graduating from college in Maryland, Karen began work in advertising as a media buyer, then went on to be a REALTOR and sales manager for Pulte homes. In the early 1990s, after working with Industrial Shows of America for several years, she and husband Joey started their own business, Marathon Productions. Their company produced several boat shows and trade events in Maryland and Virginia until the early 2000s, when they starting building and selling homes in Maryland. Karen and Joey purchased their first Keys home in Key Colony Beach in 2001, moved here full time in 2009 and built a new home in Key Colony in 2012.
Now with over 30 years of sales and marketing experience and working diligently with sellers and buyers, she has consistently sold $10 million-plus a year. She was named “Rookie of the Year” in 2011 by the Marathon and Lower Keys Association of Realtors. Since January 2011 she has been the top sales agent in “SOLD” transactions in Key Colony Beach as well as one of American Caribbean Real Estate’s top producers in the Middle Keys since she started with us in 2010. On January 1, 2019 Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices - Keys Real Estate purchase American Caribbean and as a result the local, national and international marketing tools for todays real estate market have increased exponentially. Let her dedication, expertise and hard work help make your Keys real estate dreams come true!
