Carolynn Strom was born and raised in what used to be the sleepy town of Stuart, Florida. She comes from a second generation construction and real estate family and would not be surprised if the current commercial building or luxury home you recently visited was built by her husband and/or father.

She received a degree in Psychology from the University of Georgia in 1999 and then spent the next six years living in Georgia working in pharmaceutical sales. After her husband completed his five year commitment in the Army, she was able to return back to the beautiful town of Stuart, in which she has always called home, to raise her growing family.

Carolynn’s desire to serve her community led her to join Junior League of Martin County where she reconnected with her childhood friends and made new ones along the way. She later went on to become a Registered Nurse serving the Treasure Coast community as a Diabetes Education Program Coordinator for nearly 10 years. During this time, she also served on the PTSA at Stuart Middle School and remains very active in her children’s various sports activities throughout Martin County.

As a result of COVID-19, she decided to fulfill her dream of becoming a real estate agent after realizing that there is no better sense of security than making a place your home. Her deep roots, in-depth knowledge of the area and real estate connections make her the perfect person to help you with your real estate needs, so you too can live life to the fullest in this paradise she calls home. With her warm and caring personality, there is a strong chance Carolynn may become one of your friends for life!
