SHELLEY

Celebrating Leaders

Before becoming a REALTOR®, Shelley Wang worked as a bakery manager at her local Kroger. Her husband, Corey, traveled for work, often leaving Shelley to juggle her job and the care of their two young children.

In 2010, the challenge came to a head when a snowstorm struck Texas. Most of Shelley’s friends had the chance to stay home with their kids, but not Shelley. She drove to Kroger in the snow, leaving her kids at home. It was then that she realized something had to change.

“After careful consideration, in April, I quit that job. I didn’t want to do it anymore. I needed more time with my kids,” Shelley reflects.

Shelley isn’t one to stay idle long. After a month, she began looking for her next professional opportunity. A neighbor and friend was a successful REALTOR®, and he encouraged Shelley to get her license. Shelley hesitated and wavered but ultimately decided to give it a try.
