Cathy was born and raised on Oahu and currently resides on the Windward side of the island in beautiful Kane’ohe. She credits her parents, who both instilled in her the value of a good education, the benefits of hard work, and the importance of family.
Cathy earned a Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Hawai’i at Manoa. She began her career working with family court, then estate, retirement and financial planning. After being a stay-at-home mom with her youngest son, she chose the path of real estate.
Since 2006, Cathy has assisted her clients in building wealth through real estate, which she believes is the best way they can leverage their hard-earned money. While she gets so much satisfaction helping locals buy homes, she also enjoys working with newcomers relocating to the island, members of the Armed Forces, and investors looking to expand their portfolios. For her, trust and communication is key, and she always strives to earn her client’s trust and respect by exceeding their expectations to ensure a positive experience for them. In fact clients become friends by closing day.
Cathy is married to an Air Force Academy graduate, and is an empty nester with 2 boys in college. She believes 100% in the Hawai'i Life: enjoying hiking, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, and the beautiful beaches throughout the island.
Cathy donates proceeds from every property sale to the Hawai‘i Life Charitable Fund. She was ranked #49 in the State of Hawai’i for 2023 individual sales volume by RealTrends. While Cathy bought her first property at the age of 22, her philosophy is: "it's never too late to own real estate, especially in Hawai’i".
Cathy would love to help you to own a Piece of Paradise!

My initial contact with Cathy was through HGTV’s “Hawaii Life” television series . What was most refreshing about Cathy was that she did not GIVE advice; rather, she was always there to PROVIDE advice. Her community and vendor references are unparalleled as well, and all top-notch. I would 100% recommend Cathy, and am blessed to have met and worked with one of the best Real Estate Professionals in the business. Cathy helped me find my Hawaii Life !

Cathy is your best ally when buying a home on Oahu! We have worked with very good realtors in the past, but she truly goes above and beyond. Not only does she know the island very well and is a great guide to the different areas, but she has what I like to call 'Cathy vision' which allows her to really see everything when walking through houses with you or via video call. She is on top of everything and makes sure that absolutely nothing falls through the cracks through the entire process.
