Two Perspectives. Complementary Strengths. One Commitment to Taking Exceptional Care of Our Clients.
For us, real estate is about more than houses. It’s about people, relationships and helping our clients make confident decisions during some of life’s biggest transitions.
Kim brings more than 15 years of residential real estate experience throughout Santa Cruz County and the Monterey Bay area. Having lived in Pleasure Point, La Selva Beach and Seacliff—and raised our family in Aptos—she combines deep local knowledge with a genuine connection to the communities we serve.
Known for her attention to detail and hands-on approach, Kim goes well beyond simply listing or finding a home. She helps sellers determine what to improve, what to leave alone and how to prepare and position their property for the market. For buyers, she looks beyond the beautiful photos to help identify the details, opportunities and potential concerns that really matter.
And Now, There Are Two of Us.
After more than three decades in business, sales and executive leadership, Al has joined Kim full-time in real estate.
Before making the transition, Al served as a Regional Vice President and General Manager with EKC Enterprises and previously as President and CEO of E-3 Systems. His career has centered around leadership, negotiation, strategic thinking, project management, problem-solving and building long-term client relationships.
Al holds a bachelor’s degree in Business with an emphasis in Accountancy from San Diego State University. Before beginning his business career, he served nearly eight years in the United States Navy as a Naval Aircrewman and Rescue Swimmer, including service in support of Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm.
That combination of business, financial and leadership experience brings another valuable perspective to every real estate decision we help our clients make.
Better Together.
We each see things a little differently—and we consider that one of our greatest strengths.
Kim brings deep residential real estate experience, local market knowledge, creativity and an eye for design and property presentation. Al brings decades of business leadership, financial insight, negotiation and operational experience.
Together, we bring two perspectives to every important decision and two people personally invested in helping our clients succeed.
Whether you’re preparing a longtime family home for sale, searching for your next home, downsizing or simply wondering what your options are, our goal is simple:
You make the big decisions. We help take care of everything in between.
We’ve built our lives here, raised our three children here and are now proud grandparents of three. We understand that a home isn’t simply an investment—it’s where life happens.
That perspective shapes the way we approach real estate and, most importantly, the way we take care of our clients.
