 After earning her MBA from Brenau University in her hometown of Gainesville, Georgia, Kelsey Woodard pursued a business career in manufacturing procurement. But real estate was never far from mind. She cherished childhood memories of her grandfather, a homebuilder who would take her along as he made his rounds of construction sites.

When Kelsey became a Realtor® in 2017, success came quickly as she soared past $4 million in sales in 2019. After taking time off for twin boys in 2020, she resumed her thriving career, serving Athens-Clarke, Oconee, Jackson, Madison, Barrow, and Oglethorpe counties. With a knack for making personal connections and building relationships, she is equally at ease with first-time buyers, sellers, and investors. Real estate comes naturally to Kelsey as she guides people to a home that exactly fits their needs. Open communication enables her to help clients navigate the process with confidence, secure in making major financial decisions. She says, “I always persist through the challenges and get my clients to the closing table with happy hearts!” As multitasking parents to three rowdy boys, Owen and twins Clarke and Connor, Kelsey and her husband, Zach, are active in their church and community, volunteering with Extra Special People (ESP) and supporting local shops and restaurants. In leisure time, Kelsey likes to read and loves being at the beach, boating, and tubing, as well as browsing for antiques and taking the boys to the park. With the belief that committing to exercise plays an important role in the success of a businessperson, she also enjoys doing Pure Barre up to five times a week.
