I absolutely love being a real estate agent and while many believe it is very easy, it is the most difficult job I have ever undertaken while also the most rewarding!

For 24+ years, Shannon has delivered spirited service one home at a time. Due to her tenacious yet caring nature, Shannon is fully capable of handling a wide variety of clients. She specializes in working with military personnel and families, but also has experience with first-time buyers, 1031 exchanges, buyers/sellers in Waikiki, and even those in need of a short sale. Shannon places a strong emphasis on understanding the desires and needs of all her clients. This allows her to develop a plan and strategy that will best position them in the market and hopefully make their dreams become a reality. Shannon takes great pride in successfully guiding her clients through the biggest purchase of their lives.

Shannons hard work and dedication have been consistently recognized by her clients, as she has won numerous client service awards since 2004. Her desire to help others also extends into the community, where she has served on real estate boards and has also chaired events around Oahu that have helped area elementary schools better the lives of their students. Out of all of the organizations she has volunteered with, one of her favorites is Project Visitation which sponsors events reuniting siblings separated in the foster care system in Honolulu. In addition to having served as a board member of the Hawaii LGBT Legacy Foundation, Shannon is a founding member of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce.

Born in a small town in Texas near the Dallas/Fort Worth area, Shannon visited Honolulu in the summer of 1993 to work with her great-aunt at Fort Shafter and never left. Shannon worked for a developer after graduating with a MA in American Studies from the University of Hawaii at Mnoa in 1996. Since 2016, Shannon has been married to her partner, Lidia, of fifteen years, and together have 1 child, a rescue dog named Coco Lani.

“If Shannon is your realtor, rest assured; you’re in good hands! Shannon has been my realtor since I purchased my first property in 2011. Twelve years later and 4 other transactions after, she still is as hard-working and professional as ever! Shannon is one of those realtors you want representing your side. She always looks out for her clients’ best interests. She’s fair and professional, honest and trustworthy. She and her team work diligently to make sure their transactions close quickly and with the least amount of hiccups as possible. Even when the transactions are closed and recorded, I can still count on Shannon to be available to recommend a reliable contractor or answer a random homeowner question. Home purchases/sales are a scary and expensive process. I feel so fortunate to have had Shannon hand-holding me through every step of my real estate ventures.”

Shannon has been an exceptional realtor. Her attention to detail in every aspect of the real estate transaction was flawless! We find her to be a no nonsense, direct, pointing out the pros and cons of each property and provided extensive research about each property we were interested in. 
 Never did we feel pressured or rushed, in fact, the opposite. (We are moving back to the Islands after many years away)

Shannon has gone above and beyond her normal duties of a real estate agent along with her professional team and helped make this  a stress free, REMOTE transaction using video chats and tours. We will definitely be  making other investments in the future and will be using her again.
We have worked with dozens of realtors in the past and no one has even remotely given this quality of  professionalism, honesty and integrity as Shannon has. Her contacts are priceless and excited about our renovation. We will use her again for sure!

Shannon knows real estate & is a kind person. You will make a smart decision when you choose her as your realtor. I moved to Hawaii, from New York, July 2019 & decided to rent for the 1st year until I had steady feet on the ground in Hawaii. I met Shannon at an open house in the bldg that I was renting in. She listened to what I was looking for in a property. She helped me the whole way. I purchased a fixer-upper condo in Waikiki and Shannon helped me with the renovations. She knew experienced contractors that were capable to do the renovations. She coordinated with the condo association about the renovations. My condo is now beautiful. This is all because of Shannon! I came to Hawaii not knowing one person. But Shannon became my realtor, project manager my and my friend. To meet such a knowledgeable/good/kind person with the Aloha spirit, is amazing to me. I’m over the top happy! Thank you Shannon, I’m forever grateful!
