GREENVILLE, S.C. — Last week, beloved award-winning Upstate meteorologist Christy Henderson announced she was leaving her post with WSPA after 21 years.
This week, Herlong Sotheby’s International Realty is proud to announce it has hired Henderson, who will be using her legal name of Christy Ross when she lists and sells homes for her clients, full-time as a Realtor Associate.
Originally from Fort Worth, Texas, Ross grew up among conversations about ranching, mineral rights, and owning land. Though most of her family has been involved with real estate, she chose an initial career path that followed her love of math and science. She graduated from Texas A&M University with a degree in Meteorology. Her on-air debut was at KCEN-TV in Waco, Texas, followed by stints in New Orleans, Los Angeles, Atlanta (where she did weather segments with guests such as The Rock, Kevin Bacon and Ed McMahon), Washington, D.C., and Dallas.
She is a six-time winner of the South Carolina Broadcasters Association’s “Weathercaster of the Year” award, and three-time winner for the SCBA’s “Personality of the Year” award.
“Christy’s honors underscore the trust she has earned among her viewers and colleagues,” said Joan Herlong, CEO of Herlong Sotheby’s International Realty. “Through her ability to connect, a deep rooted understanding of the value of owning a home, and a passion for the area she serves, Christy serves as an incredible Realtor for her clients.”
