Katie Minkus’s Summary

My master's degree in Counseling Psychology is of great value as a Real Estate Consultant and Broker-in-Charge for Hawaii Life Real Estate Services - Big Island division, allowing me to be more present and deeply listen to my clients' needs and desires with the professional detachment necessary to most adequately advise and guide their real estate decisions. I do believe education, knowledge and access to information is critical when it comes to assisting clients with their real estate needs and my goals include attending as many real estate educational opportunities around the world as possible. As the world becomes more connected, clear communication and cultural understanding is key to success in an international marketplace. What is more international than real estate - especially in Hawaii.
