Hawai‘i Life Appoints O‘ahu Real Estate Brokers to Key Leadership Positions

Hawai‘i Life has appointed Diana (Novoselic) Ricciuti this week to the role of Broker-in-Charge (BIC) on O‘ahu, while O‘ahu BIC John Climaldi steps into a specialized role as Director of International Affiliations.

Ricciuti joined Hawai‘i Life in 2018. Ricciuti takes the reins from John Climaldi as she joins other BICs in leading our company’s growing team of O‘ahu real estate professionals. This year marks 20 years for Ricciuti as a licensed real estate agent on O‘ahu. She obtained her O‘ahu broker’s license in 2010. She is a designated international sales agent, Luxury Homes Specialist, and a three-time nominee for the Aloha ‘Āina REALTOR® Awards on O‘ahu.

John Climaldi, newly appointed Director of International Affiliations at Hawai‘i Life and Diana Ricciuti, Hawai‘i Life’s new Broker-in-Charge at the company’s Haleiwa office on O‘ahu’s North Shore

“I’m so honored and excited to be the broker-in-charge of our North Shore office in Haleiwa, an area that holds a special place in my heart since the 1990s. The sales team on the North Shore is a unique, fun, and diverse group to work with, and I look forward to supporting and continuing to foster their special dynamic.” 

As Director of International Affiliations, Climaldi will focus on the company’s affiliations with global luxury real estate networks Christie’s International Real Estate, Leading Real Estate Companies of the World and Luxury Portfolio International®. 

“Hawai‘i Life’s international affiliations provide extraordinary reach for our clients and agents, and they each provide their own suite of tools and offerings which all require management,” said CEO and Principal Broker Matt Beall. “It’s great to have a leader like John Climaldi step into this role, especially because he’s sort of homegrown for Hawai‘i Life. He understands our company’s culture and values and he can readily share those with our affiliates around the world.”

John Climaldi has been with Hawai‘i Life since 2016. He’s been a licensed real estate agent in Hawai‘i since 2010, and an O‘ahu licensed real estate broker since 2014. 

“I am excited to take on the challenge of this new position to promote our referral network and affiliations to our agents, and present Hawai‘i Life to our affiliates worldwide,” said Climaldi. “My role is to serve our team and clients and to provide true value that supports the ecosystem and leverages our affiliate networks to our clients’ fullest advantage.”
