About Kelly

Born in Connecticut, my professional journey began in the mortgage industry delivering exceptional service and supporting my customers financial goals. My affinity for sales led me to pursue a degree from Albertus Magmus in New Haven Connecticut. Searching for new avenues for growth and a place to establish my career, my journey took me to South Florida, where I joined Supreme Lending. In South Florida I embraced my ability to build relationships and be a community connector. Stepping into the Tower Club Fort Lauderdale as the Membership Director, I bring a unique blend of dedication, creativity, and innovation to the world of membership. Fueled by a passion for pushing boundaries and embracing fresh ideas, I am dedicated to enhancing our members and helping them grow with Fort Lauderdale. As Tower Club quickly approaches its 50th anniversary in 2024, I am honored to promote Tower Club membership. I believe in the power of connecting people and building relationships that ultimately enrich our lives.
