    After high school, Greenwood went to UT-Tyler and later moved to Austin, where she began working at Dell Computer as their paralegal.

As several Dell employees left to create their own software companies, they hired Greenwood as their real estate agent. Greenwood’s career in luxury real estate kicked off as she began selling luxury properties immediately.

    Now Greenwood has been a successful luxury real estate agent for the past 25 years. She is a member of Austin’s Elite 25, which is made up of the top 1 percent of realtors in Austin. Greenwood has recently started her own company, Cindy Greenwood Residential.
