Real Estate Agent on Maui at Maui Elite Property

My goal is to overperform for you and provide an elite level of service as we navigate the process from start to finish. To be great at something, you have to really love what you do. My passion for real estate began with my passion for Hawaii and the Island of Maui. I love Maui for many reasons and deciding to spend my life here was the best decision I ever made. It's a privilege to be able to introduce new homeowners to the island as well as assist current residents with buying and selling property. With so many different types of activities and ways to experience the beauty of island life, we are truly blessed to live on Maui.

As a child I remember breathing in the toxic chemicals as I would “help out” at my Father’s screen printing shop after school. My Mother and her Father before her were both incredible artists. Norman Rockwell’s painting of my Grandpa Jim always hung somewhere in our family home. Design has always been in me even as a child. For the past 10 years I have been focusing on creating delightful digital experiences for human users.
