The Spirit of Aloha.... Aloha translated is, Alo "presence" of spirit, and Ha, "the breath of life." Aloha is a way of life that treats others with sincerity, generosity, love, compassion, and respect. This is my esteemed mantra.
A background in Interior Design & Architecture, as well as a Degree in Integral Studies, fostered my professional full-time career into Real Estate. My deep affection and reverence for nature brought me to Hawaii to raise my ohana (family) in its’ safe, pristine environment, and rich culture rooted in venerated values & traditions offering my sweet son an archetype, a touchstone on his life voyage.
Interpreting my client's dreams and wishes is my professional passion and privilege. My proven expertise and experience navigate my clients through Hawaii's magical diversity of microclimates, landscapes, and all that island style and aloha living have to offer.
Outside of the office, I aspire to be a supermom, I am admittedly a foodie, I adore traveling abroad (born and raised in Montreal, Canada – an exquisitely European’esque city :), spending days in or on the sea, pilates & dance, hiking, camping, photography (it’s the call of the landscape) and any and all family time whilst playing in the paradise I call home.
Let me pay forward my passion of Hawaii living. I would be honored to meet with you to discuss any and all questions you have. Whether buying or selling, let's transform your dreams into your reality - your Hawaiian paradise awaits you!
Presently, I reside on the west coast of the Big Island of Hawaii. I am so very grateful to be living a joyful, luxurious & luminous Hawaii Life with my beautiful ohana!
We have worked with Leslie on multiple property purchases and sales, all of which she has handled brilliantly. We are always deeply impressed by her knowledge of the market, professionalism, responsiveness, high judgment and ability to manage every detail. She is by far the best real estate agent we have ever worked with, and has gained our complete confidence and trust.
We recently bought a home with the help of Leslie, and were very impressed with her through the entire process. We were looking for something that was very difficult to find, and we were on a limited budget. Leslie listened to us, knew exactly what we were looking for, and also understood market conditions as they related to our budget. She was creative and persistent and she found us a one-of-a-kind property that is perfect for us.
We were dealing with a difficult seller and Leslie knew just how to handle the sale at every turn. She was incredibly detail-oriented and we would not own our beautiful home without her skill and determination. She kept her sense of humor, honesty, and open communication throughout the entire process, which greatly reduced some potentially stressful situations.
We have worked with many realtors here in Hawaii and on the mainland, and Leslie is by far the best. She is extremely knowledgeable about local real estate and had excellent communication and customer service skills from the day we met her until the follow up visit after the sale was complete. If you are looking for a realtor on the Big Island, we highly recommend Leslie for her ethics, knowledge, customer service, kindness, and exceptional communication.
