After spending a decade in Halifax and almost 8 years in Calgary, she moved back to Nova Scotia in 2021 and now happily calls the Annapolis Valley home again.
During her time away, Kate entered into the world of architectural drafting, honing her skills as a technician. She then drew on her eye for detail and space to design custom interior cabinetry. It was during these years that her love for all things related to ‘home’ began to flourish. Kate found herself captivated by the subtle art of creating spaces that truly resonated with people and their unique tastes and needs.
Real Estate was a natural progression for Kate, allowing her to merge her background in architecture and design with her newfound passion for home. Kate's commitment to excellence, keen eye for design, and deep understanding of what makes a house a home make her a standout real estate agent.
As Kate looks forward to her future at MacKay Real Estate, she is excited to continue using her unique blend of experiences, knowledge, and genuine love for the industry to make a difference in the lives of those she assists. With her, clients can rest assured that they have a dedicated and passionate partner who will go above and beyond to make their real estate dreams come true.
Kate takes great joy and pride in working closely with clients to ensure that their real estate experience is nothing short of exceptional.
