Kate McKinnon

Kate was born and raised in Sudbury, Ontario. As a retired member of the Canadian Armed Forces, she has had the opportunity to live in a number of cities across Ontario, Quebec, and Nova Scotia. After leaving the Navy honourably, Kate relocated to the Ottawa region, where she met her husband, started her family, earned an Honours B.A. in English and an M.A. in English Literature, and worked at the University of Ottawa.

For years, Kate dreamed of escaping the city in search of a smaller town—one that could offer her and her young family a true sense of belonging, a feeling of home, and a place among the Franco-Ontarien community. Kate's search inevitably led her to Brockville, where she currently resides with her husband, two children, and in-laws. After over a decade of work in academia and business, Kate took a leap of faith into the world of real estate, where she continues to serve her clients faithfully every day. She comes with a unique set of life experiences and skills that are not common in the industry. 

From a life lived across provincial borders in both rural and urban settings, and having personally experienced the sale and purchase of several homes, Kate fully appreciates just how stressful purchasing and selling property can be. Her goals are always the same: to put her clients first, to nurture her relationships, to act with professionalism, dignity, and respect, and to become a leader in the community.
