2025 WVU Medicine Children’s Eastern Panhandle Gala
The Black Diamond Realty team in the Eastern Panhandle enjoyed a fantastic evening at the 2025 WVU Medicine Children’s Gala, embracing the lively “Into the Jungle” theme while supporting a great cause. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with community members, celebrate the incredible work of WVU Medicine Children’s, and support its mission of providing exceptional care to young patients.
Welcome to the Black Diamond team, Drew and Kate!
We are welcoming two new team members to Black Diamond. We’re so happy to have Drew and Kate join us in their respective roles and look forward to the uniques skills and passion they’ll bring to our team!
Drew Paton is the newest Associate to be joining Black Diamond and will be operating out of our Morgantown, WV office.
A graduate of Fairmont State University, Drew has immense experience in both the mortgage and insurance industries. He owned a successful insurance agency for over 17 years before retiring from that industry and pursuing real estate.
Drew, his wife Allison, and their three children live in Fairmont where he is a very active member of his community. When he is not coaching and supporting his children’s teams and activities, you can find Drew cheering on Fairmont State. He serves on the Fairmont State University Board of Governors, the Marion County Chamber board, and the Financial Council at St. Anthony Church.
Throughout his career, Drew has found success by combining a passion for helping clients with industry knowhow – and we’re excited to have him on our team!
Kate Kimm is the Executive Assistant to Black Diamond Principal David Lorenze and Client Services Coordinator operating out of our Morgantown, WV headquarters. Kate has a Bachelor’s of Business and a Master’s of Business from California University of Pennsylvania. She will be using her real estate knowledge and a strong background in client relations and strategic growth to ensure seamless client relations and support the firm’s executive leadership.
Kate is heavily involved in the local community of the surrounding area she calls home. Passionate about health and wellness, she holds a Level One CrossFit certification and serves as a CrossFit coach and instructor. Kate brings dedication, commitment, and focus to all aspects of her life, from her personal endeavors to the workplace. We look forward to the experience and passion she brings to Black Diamond!
Martinsburg-Berkeley County Chamber of Commerce Mixer
Last month, we hosted the Martinsburg-Berkeley County Chamber of Commerce Mixer at our Martinsburg, WV office. A fun time was had by all as our neighbors, community members, and colleagues mixed, mingled, and networked. Thank you to everyone who came out for the event, it was great to connect with members of our Berkeley County community!
