With generational family roots along the Emerald Coast and decades of local market experience, Kimberly offers unparalleled insight into the beach communities of Santa Rosa Beach, Blue Mountain Beach, Grayton Beach, Seagrove, Seaside, Inlet Beach, and Rosemary Beach. Born in New York City and raised in North Carolina, Kimberly grew up spending every summer in South Walton, visiting family in DeFuniak Springs and gathering for beach reunions in Grayton and Seagrove since the 1960s. Those early experiences made her uniquely knowledgeable about the 30A lifestyle, coastal neighborhoods, historic communities, and long-term regional growth. After lifeguarding and teaching swimming at Sandestin throughout college, Kimberly moved to Walton County full-time to begin her journalism career. She served as the South Walton reporter for the Destin Log before becoming Editor of The Beach Breeze for the DeFuniak Springs Herald. Her years covering local communities, land development, environmental issues, and regional growth shaped her deep understanding of South Walton’s real estate market. Kimberly went on to earn a Master of Science in Technology, writing eight books and hundreds of articles for national technology publications. She founded NetPR in 1996, advising start-ups and Fortune 500 companies on marketing strategy—expertise she now uses to deliver high-impact real estate marketing, digital exposure, and strategic listing campaigns for her clients. Her transition into real estate evolved naturally as she became involved in local development projects, including her own Planned Unit Development. Kimberly has extensive experience in land sales, investment properties, fixer-upper renovations, luxury homes, and coastal community planning. She also holds a license in life insurance and annuities, giving clients an added advantage in retirement planning, portfolio building, and long-term property strategy.
