About Michelle
A clear goal drives me: With a focus on delivering an exceptional real estate experience, I aim to minimize stress, prioritize effective communication, and uphold a commitment to excellence from the initial search to the final signing.
Having spent 19 years deeply involved in every facet of selling and marketing luxury real estate in Montecito and Santa Barbara, working alongside two top-producing agents, including Suzanne Perkins, I’m excited to join the ranks as a full-time real estate agent with The Locale Group at Compass in Montecito. We are incredibly energized by our dynamic group with a shared purpose of making a difference in the lives of our clients and our community.
Drawing on my extensive background as a Marketing Director, Licensed Real Estate Associate since 2004, and an award-winning Graphic Artist and Copywriter for 28 years, I am well-prepared to leverage my expertise to benefit our clients. View My Design Portfolio here.
Driven by a passion for serving others and a keen focus on marketing, I'm dedicated to utilizing my veteran experience to guide our clients to success through exceptional service and unwavering communication. My core values of professionalism, integrity, creativity, tenacity, and diligence underpin every aspect of my business approach, ensuring a fresh and innovative perspective.
Over the past two decades, I've enjoyed the distinct opportunity to market hundreds of the most innovative and exclusive luxury Montecito and Santa Barbara estates, including two of the most expensive listings in America at the time: Rancho San Carlos ($125,000,000) and The Sycamore Valley
Ranch ($100,000,000), formerly known as Neverland Ranch. View My Real Estate Marketing Portfolio here.
As the wife of a newly retired Santa Barbara County Deputy Fire Chief (who hails
from England), the Mom of an active teen daughter (with dual citizenship), and a super-mutt rescue named Winston; home life is rich! My family loves to travel, and we enjoy experiencing all of our favorite adventures that the Central Coast has to offer – Master’s Swimming at Los Banos, hiking, e-biking, glamping, beach volleyball, sunset beach walks, al-fresco dining experiences, and live music. It's no wonder that Santa Barbara is ranked #7 Best Places to Live for Quality of Life, according to U.S. News and World Report.
