Phill Shorter

I was born October 8, 1948, in Enid, Oklahoma; to the greatest parents God can give anyone! They supported me in all my endeavors whether it was going to school or taking time off. I graduated from high school in 1966, college in 1974, and completed a year of graduate studies in Counseling Psychology. From 1968 through 1971, I served in the U. S. Marine Corps completing a tour of duty in 1969-70, in South Vietnam. Since 1976, I have worked in marketing, wholesale sales, corporate retail, restaurant and retirement management, and owned my own retail business. I served as a member & officer in the Odessa/Midland Marine Corps League, Odessa & Midland Chamber of Commerce’s, Greater Odessa Rotary Club, graduated from Leadership Odessa (1996) and served on various civic and corporate committees and a past board member of a non-profit marketing organization for the Midland-Odessa area. After going out of business in 1999, my wife, Carol, and I returned to the Fort Worth area where she continued to teach school as a Reading Specialist and I obtained my Real Estate license in 2003. I have always had a positive can-do attitude (don’t believe in the word can’t); don’t have a problem with change, and love learning and working with people. I transferred my license to Trophy Realtors in 2004, where I continue to learn and work. I am a member of the Northwest Metroport Chamber of Commerce, Metroplex Association of Realtors as well as the Texas Assoc. of Realtors & National Assoc. of Realtors and Milestone Church. My ultimate goal is to become a Real Estate Broker and open up my own office by 2010.
