Carol Culkin (Century 21 - Anita Ferri Realty): Real Estate Agent in Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County, New York

Carol Culkin - Real Estate Agent
Poughkeepsie, NY
Carol Culkin, ABR, Associate Broker, Relocation Specialist for Century 21- Anita Ferri Realty, is your source for real estate in Dutchess County. Carol - an award winning agent who gets results!

Lets see..what can I say about myself..

1. I originally grew up in a small town east of Rochester, NY called Marion. There were only 69 people in my graduating class and I was Senior Class president! This year will be our 10 year reunion and that is one more thing that I have to plan this year since it's the job of the president to do so. I went to college at SUNY New Paltz and I double majored in Theatre and Communication. I have a HUGE love of the theatre but I also know that it doesn't always pay the bills. I have not acted since my days in college even though I keep saying that one of these days I am going to try out for some community theatre here.

When I was 24 I found my calling. Professional Organizing. That is when I started my business Controlled Chaos. I love the fact that it is a job that I always get a hug with my paycheck! It was only a year and a half ago that I started staging. I love that as well and I still get a hug with my check!

2. I have been with the man of my dreams for 6 and a half years. Everyone wants to know when we will be getting married. And I ask him the same question! We know we are he just wants to have everything set financially before we do.

3.I love Reality TV!  I also have a very strong urge to be on Survivor or The Amazing Race. The thought of being trapped on an island looking for my own food and making my own shelter is something I dream of! I know it's crazy! As for The Amazing Race I would love to visit other countries and experience them in a way that many other people don't experience them. Plus the fact that I would get to race against people and find different and faster ways of doing things intrigues me!

4. My dream is to live in Arizona. I have never actually been. But I want the heat. I think the fact that I grew up in upstate NY is why I hate the snow and cold so much. I want it to be HOT! I am still chipping away at my boyfriend to get him to move and I think it's working little by little...

5 I am a huge procrastinator. I have always been that way. My parents would always tell me to start things early but that didn't work for me. If I knew I had a couple of days before something was due. I wouldn't do it. My parents now tell me that they could never punish me for waiting to the last minute to do papers or projects because I would always get A's!

Well that's just a little slice of me, hope I didn't bore you too much!

Now it's time to nominate someother lucky people I would like to know more about:

Tara - My husband graduated in a class of 68 kids. It is the family joke that that class is evenly spread throughout the U.S. because we run into them wherever we go.  All but once - in DisneyWorld and he was greatly disappointed. 

Anyway, my daughter is a very much involved in her theater at school and dreams of being on Broadway.  I'm sure it was the same for you.  I hope she does, but if not I hope she finds another calling like you have.  So glad to have learned a little more about you!

Thanks for sharing Tara. I lived for two year in Chili - outside of Rochester. It might not be Arizona here, but it's a little warmer than Central NY.

Hey, Tara!

It's great to learn more about you! I was born in Newburgh, though we only stayed in that area for a few years. And we have MORE in common!  I like to sit in the comfort of my home and watch other people sweat and starve and compete in exotic locations! If I can't plug in my curling iron, I would die...it's that simple! Thanks for sharing, and I hope you get that move (and that wedding) some day soon!

Thanks Tara - I totally relate to #5.  I'm still that way.  And I did always get A's too.  Apparently the stress of the last minute works for us!
