Team Andy Gibson Spotlight - Getting to Know Samantha

Part of selecting a real estate team at the Lake of the Ozarks to work with when selling or buying a home is getting to know the staff you'll be working with. Team Andy Gibson wants to make sure you feel comfortable with our team. So to help you feel at ease and confident in our abilities, we're continuing occasionally featuring blogs spotlighting members of the team so you can get to know them better. This week, our spotlight team member is Samantha Carr - Listing Coordinator for Team Andy Gibson!

Experience & Education

Samantha Carr is originally from a little town outside of Kansas City called Lawson. She attended college in Trenton, finished her degree from Columbia College at the Lake of the Ozarks, and obtained an MBA in Accounting from William Woods University in Fulton. After finishing college, Samantha decided to relocate to the Lake of the Ozarks. Samantha and her family had moved a couple of places since then, but because it's like a little city in the summertime, yet so peaceful and beautiful in the winter and early spring, they were always drawn back to the Lake of the Ozarks. 

Although Samantha went to college and received a degree in Accounting, a career in financing was not always her dream. When she was little her big dream was to be a NBA superstar! She loved playing basketball and always played with the boys, so being in the WNBA just wasn't an option in her mind. Her love for basketball followed her into college, where she played on a college level at Trenton. She was such a rockstar in her academics that she was awarded Academic All-American status because she maintained A's and played ball through her college years!

One thing that Samantha had been considering for a while was to become a real estate agent. However, with a MBA in Accounting, she felt that it would be best to stay in the finance field. It wasn't until the opportunity arose to work with Team Andy Gibson as the Listing Coordinator that she decided to make the leap into real estate. In becoming involved in the industry, she's finding that her background in financing plays a significant role in different parts of real estate. Therefore, her finance background and her knowledge of the Lake area will be very beneficial to her transition into the real estate industry.  

Outside the Office

When not at work, Samantha's favorite thing to do with her free time is to play with her two children. She describes her children as the most important pieces of her life. Kora, her two year old daughter, is the most outgoing, free spirit she knows; while her three year old son, Kaiden, is quite reserved, but loves playing sports like his mom. Samantha enjoys taking them to the park and on walks. Staying active and having fun is a very important goal for the family.

When you work with Team Andy Gibson, chances are you'll get to know Samantha well, as she'll be assisting in much of the correspondences for the team. You can count on her to make sure your real estate transaction goes smoothly and is handled in a timely manner. Team Andy Gibson prides ourselves in our extensive knowledge of the real estate industry, and hold ourselves accountable for keeping the best interest of our clients in mind. When you work with our experienced real estate team at the Lake of the Ozarks, you can rest assured that you are in good hands and that we have your best interest in mind throughout and after the transaction.
