Sarah was born in Palo Alto, California and moved to Kona on Hawaii’s “Big Island” as a youth where she spent her formative years. She feels fortunate to have been raised surrounded by the beauty of these islands and has gained a fine appreciation of Hawaii’s uniqueness as a place to live. The Aloha Spirit has always been a way of life for her, and her family.

At the age of 17, Sarah was signed with a top modeling agency in New York and began a modeling career working extensively in Manhattan and Los Angeles. Those early experiences fostered a strong work ethic and professionalism that she continued to nurture throughout the years.

Sarah returned to Hawaii in 2000 as she became a parent and wanted her daughter to experience her youth in the islands. With its clean air and water, diverse cultural ethnicities and sense of community, the Hawaiian Islands are a perfect place to raise a family.

While in Hawaii, Sarah retained a position with the Interior Options Program, and later the Design Review Committee at Kuki’o Golf & Beach Club, a private oceanfront club and residential community located next to the Four Seasons Hualalai on the Big Island’s Gold Coast. She was fortunate to be there at the very beginning, and contributed to the successful growth of the development. As the Kuki’o community grew, so did her fundamental role as the interface between client and contractor and being part of a team that created some of the most beautifully designed luxury estates in the country. Sarah gained invaluable experience working with high profile clients and worked with some of Hawaii’s leading architects and interior designers.

In 2008, Sarah and her family relocated to the Hawaii Kai area on the island of Oahu, where she initially worked as a Commercial Retail Broker with CB Richard Ellis, but came to realize that her real passion is in residential sales. Sarah brings her experience of working with the discriminating buyer, partnered with a background in the luxury market, in addition to her Aloha Spirit born of a lifetime of love for the islands.

As a longtime resident in Hawaii, Sarah understands the many opportunities the Islands offer. When she is not working, she enjoys being outdoors with her family and her chocolate lab. She loves hiking, running, stand-up paddleboarding, Pilates, and travel opportunities that living in such a centrally located destination provides. She also works in print and television projects in her spare time for the Marriott Hotels, DFS Galleria, ABC’s new TV series “Off The Map”, and others.

Sarah looks forward to using her skills and expertise to help find the home that is right for you.
