About the Listing Agent

"Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”
Mary Oliver
My Hawaii life started when my husband and I were on HGTV’s "Hawaii Life" show during season 2 (The episode title is "NH to Kauai".). We spent 3 weeks on Kauai while filming for the show and bought our home on the Garden Island. I was impressed with the professionalism and energy of the team at Hawaii Life during our purchase and knew that I wanted to work with them as an agent.
