BOISE, ID October 21, 2021 – Idaho Business Review released their annual Women of the Year list for 2021, naming the final 50 honorees out of over 150 nominations received from around the state. Christina Ward, of Christina & Company with Keller Williams Realty Boise, was listed for her community impact, not just for her impressive numbers but also because of her heart.
In 2020, Ward made top performance lists at Keller Williams for her stellar production: 152 units with $65 million in sales volume. From babysitting gigs, to volleyball athlete at Boise State, to realtor, to proud mother of kids Spencer and Emma, the road hasn’t always been smooth to reach this point.
“I moved to Keller Williams in 2011 in the great recession. It’s fuzzy years for me, but this company definitely saved my life,” explained Ward. “I almost went and got a real job. Because I was starving, literally, and I kept hearing about this company that said they create magic. So I decided to give it one last chance. And it did. Magic happened after that.”
Since joining Keller Williams, Ward has led her team by example living a life by design. By leveraging those around her, she’s able to prioritize her family while growing her business and even teaching nationally for her own “100 Homes by Referral Class”. Keep your eye on the bookstore shelves because Ward will soon release her first book sharing her expert learnings with first-time homebuyer and seller target audiences.
When asked about being named an honoree by Idaho Business Review, Ward was humbled to be in the presence of other great community leaders, particularly the 2021 Woman of the Year, Odette Bolano of Saint Alphonsus Health System, an essential hero in the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. “Her speech was so inspiring, it almost made me want to leave real estate and join the healthcare system,” said Ward. “Almost!”
If the Keller Williams Northwest Region has anything to say about it, Christina Ward and her hardworking team won’t be going anywhere anytime soon.
