She was an Executive of the Year Honoree by the Memphis Business Journal in 2020, RRC’s 2021 Young Professional winner, and a StyleBlueprint FACE of Memphis.
In 2021, Captain was selected by RIS Media as a Crusader for the ally-ship efforts on speaking up against racism. She was featured on the front cover for the Residential Specialist magazine as a young CRS making a difference in the Nov/Dec 2020 issue. She is the TN Realtor’s Association Diversity Committee Vice Chair, the RRC TN State President, and is this year’s MAAR Diversity and Inclusion Committee Chair.

Additionally, Fara is creating “non-judgement zones” for fellow allies to step forward in their efforts to move towards racial equity. In 2021, Captain completed her certification in Diversity and Inclusion at eCornell University. Fara teaches a class on how to be an Inclusive REALTOR & How to be an Inclusive Leader to her fellow Council of Residential Specialist peers (CRS members are the top 5% of REALTORS in the nation) and fellow Tennessee REALTORS®. She meets with fellow passionate DEI (Diversity Equity Inclusion) Memphis leaders to discuss ways that Memphians can continue to inspire the community into a more Inclusive environment.
In 2021, Fara acquired her Mississippi Broker License.
