Courtney graduated from UGA, majoring in sociology and political science. She went to work on political campaigns and other promotions outside of election season, including Savannah Jazz Fest. That relationship led to contacts that resulted in more project management work. It quickly became her career.
“I’m always bridging the gap.”
After five years, she was working with her retiring employer to sell more than $32M in assets. Stature Investments was buying one of the largest, 300 Drayton. This landmark commercial building in downtown Savannah was also home to her former company’s offices. Yash Desai was impressed with Courtney’s business and relationship skills during the transaction. When her employer closed the business, an offer was made, and she joined the team.
Managing the building she once worked in has included a remodel and rebrand, with a solid restaurant business on the ground floor, 20 office tenants, and a luxury penthouse vacation rental. Courtney also maintains her relationship duties, acting as a liaison between the company’s downtown office and Pooler headquarters.
“The lobbying experience helps.”
On weekends, Courtney spends time with her pug, relaxing at Tybee Island beach, attending a Savannah Ghost Pirates game, or walking around her downtown neighborhood.
