Following my heart and my passion for surfing, farming and building, I arrived and settled on Kauai’s North Shore more than 30 years ago. Realizing quickly after my arrival that I had discovered my “paradise,” I made the decision this was where my home and future would reside.

 

Background

Planting more than my own roots, I developed a passion and love for organic farming and founded Kauai Organic Farms and Hawaii Naturals. As CEO of both companies, I grew them into successful enterprises and became one Hawaii’s largest producers of organic products and produce. At that point in my life, I met my beautiful wife Melissa, who is the mother of our three children, Max, Wyatt and Koa and my constant “guiding light”. I am grateful for the wonderful life I get to enjoy everyday on Kauai and I'm a strong believer in giving back. In fact, my team and I are involved in over 25 local, regional, national and international philanthropic causes ranging from the Kauai Community Arts Program and the Kilauea Point Natural History Association to the Natural Resource Defense Council, Greenpeace, and SurfAid International.


SERVICES

In 2010, I sold the company I loved and founded (Koa Properties) to Hawaii Life Real Estate Brokers. Now, as a broker with Kauai’s premier real estate company, I've continually been one of Kauai’s top listing and selling brokers and most requested agent for more than thirty years. My unparalleled knowledge of Kauai’s properties and my coveted client list, combined with my hard work and determination, have earned me and my company the top position in Kauai’s growing real estate market. My clientele also benefit from the talents and local knowledge of his sales team; Billy Eckert (LIC# RS-72094) a graduate in marketing and management and Eric  Bronstein (LIC# RS-68014) who holds masters degrees in both economics and finance. These relationships combined with my “hands-on knowledge” of Kauai’s real estate market become a powerful and effective advantage for both buyers and sellers.

We also guide our clients into the finest short term home rentals on Kauai and across the entire state. We handle all their needs from private chefs to yoga to surf and kiting lessons, etc.
