Brenda Rowland

Brenda brings a diverse background to her present profession. She enjoyed a career with the Department of Defense before moving to Murray and becoming the Manager of Networking and Microcomputer Services at Murray State University. Her move to Murray gave her an understanding of a family facing a cross-country change of homes and communities. After retiring from Murray State, Brenda obtained her real estate license thinking she would give it a year to test it out. That was almost twenty years ago.

Brenda has been an active member of the MCC Board of Realtors, serving as Board President and as a director for many years. She has also spent several terms as a Director on the Western Kentucky Regional MLS Board. Her professionalism has earned her a seat on the Professional Standards Appeals Committee. Brenda was recognized in 2008 as the MCC Realtor of the Year, and in 2007 she received the Hoyt Roberts Award for exceptional service to the Board in the first three years of membership. In the broader community, Brenda has been the past President and board member of Business and Professional Women, past President of the Murray Rotary Club, board member of the Foundation for Families and Children, past Chair of the Cable Commission, board member of the Engineering and Technology Advisory Board at MSU and has served on the Architectural Review Board for the city of Murray.

In her leisure time, Brenda enjoys reading, spending time with her family, cooking, needlework, and volunteering at the First Baptist Church and in the community. She enjoys traveling, especially if it involves visiting with her granddaughter, Jordyn, in California.
