Aloha! My journey in real estate began over two decades ago, in 2001, when I joined a local mortgage brokerage. Under the guidance of a trusted mentor, I mastered every aspect of the business—from loan origination to closure—developing a particular passion for land and construction loans, a focus that continues to drive my work today. In 2009, I took on a new challenge and started a vacation rental cleaning business I operated for eight years. This experience gave me a unique understanding of the local real estate landscape and the specific needs of homeowners, investors, and vacation rental managers. In 2017, I came full circle in my career by earning my real estate sales license, allowing me to blend my mortgage expertise, property management knowledge, and love for the Big Island to help buyers and sellers alike. Having grown up in Waimea, I deeply understand the lifestyle and values that make our island community so unique. I raised my children here, and now, I enjoy watching my grandchildren grow and thrive in this beautiful setting. Outside work, I fully embrace the island lifestyle—paddling outrigger canoes, spending time with family, or simply soaking in the Big Island’s natural beauty. My goal is to help you find more than just a property; I want to help you discover a place you can truly call home in this extraordinary locale.

The western coast of the Big Island is dominated by the North and South Kona district, and Kailua-Kona is the lively center of both. This historic seaside town sits in the center of both districts, a few miles south of the Kona International Airport (KOA). Not too long-ago Kailua was a sleepy fishing village. Now, because of its central location and great weather it has transformed into a lively town that is the activity capital of the Big Island. In our opinion Kailua is the place on the island that is best equipped for tourists. You can find many shops and farmers markets selling locally produced items here, and there are many restaurant options. This makes Kailua-Kona a good and central home base to explore the west coast of the island. Relax and look at the waves crashing over the black lava rocks while sipping from a cup of the world-famous Kona coffee or have some freshly caught ahi (tuna) while recovering from your busy day.
