Courtney grew up in South Tampa on Davis Islands and has also lived in the Hyde Park, Palma Ceia and Parkland Estates neighborhoods. After graduating from Plant High School, Courtney went on to earn a marketing degree from USF's business school. After college, Courtney worked in print production at Tampa's largest advertising agency where she worked on accounts such as Publix and Outback Steakhouse.
Eventually, Courtney started her own children's portrait business, and then began to focus solely on real estate photography. This new adventure reunited her with old friends, Sue & George Paskert and Lynne Paskert Brown. Today, they have formed a real estate team, PBG South Tampa.
Courtney has lived in South Tampa since 1973 and been licensed since 1987. Even though the area has changed dramatically over the years, Courtney feels that South Tampa is the greatest place to live, work, play and raise a family.
