Kelly Coello,
MarketingCoordinator, Austin


How long have you worked in CRE?       
2.5 years

Tenure with TW?
1 year

How did you get your start in the industry?
I got started in commercial real estate with Marcus & Millichap, where I worked as a marketing coordinator in Multifamily! I saw a job posting online for Transwestern and was ecstatic when I got hired! 

What deal or project are you most proud of?
I’ve loved learning how to do drone photography from Karen Judson, and I’ve done a good amount of drone photography and videography for different projects. One I’m especially proud of is the footage of Chase Park for our flyer. With there being a lot of telephone wires and it being so windy I had to think outside the box to get the right kind of footage of the buildings.

Favorite TYP event?
I loved helping people learn how to fly drones at a 2021 TYP event. Everyone had a great time.

Interests/hobbies outside of work?
I love to paddle board, mountain bike, two-step and try new restaurants in town!

Favorite spot in your city?
I love to hang out at Zilker and eat out at Loro!       

If you could have lunch with one person, who would it be?
Taylor Swift. I’m a big fan and think she’s a great person.

What’s the best piece of career advice you’ve been given?
Every time you get knocked down, just get up and keep on trying!
