With 30 years of experience as a real estate broker on Oahu, I earned a reputation as a proactive, thorough agent who employs creative solutions to get things done early on in my career. Born in Elgin, IL and raised in San Jose, CA, I moved to Hawai’i in 1992 and launched my real estate career in 1993, at 23 years old. Since then, I’ve closed more than 300 transactions with a combined value of over $130 million. Among my most impressive transactions is an iconic Makiki estate with panoramic views and 6 parcels on over 2.5 lush acres that sold for $10.25M in 2022.
In 1995, I received my Broker's license and today, I help buyers and sellers make the best real estate decisions by providing sound and savvy guidance, as well as personalized strategies. Committed to truly understanding my clients and helping them define what their needs, preferences, and priorities are, I maintain a consistent line of communication throughout the entire process. With a background in counseling, I understand that buying or selling a property can be stressful, and naturally make my clients feel at ease about the process. No matter how challenging the transaction, I work with determination, tenacity, and a tireless attention to detail to ensure the process is smooth, and my clients reach or exceed their real estate goals.
Throughout my career, I have received numerous Aloha Aina nominations and service awards for outstanding client satisfaction. When I’m not investing the time and attention needed to deliver the best possible outcome for my clients, I balance expressing my creativity through upcycling furniture and staging properties with striving toward my health and fitness goals, and being a loving Mom to my daughter. I appreciate the sense of family, the connection to community, and the slower pace that living in Hawai’i affords, and always finds time to stop and smell the plumeria!
I combine Hawai’i Life’s global network, advanced tools, and the best real estate marketing available with my expertise, passion, and positivity to help new and past clients and referrals. Knowledgeable about many of Oahu's residential neighborhoods, I am well versed in the island’s diverse submarkets. I enjoy walking a first time buyer or seller through the real estate experience just as much as working in Oahu’s luxury real estate market. If you’re ready to find a home in one of Oahu’s diverse communities or just curious about what your property is worth in today’s market, please contact me for a complimentary, pressure-free analysis today.
