Originally from the Bay Area of California, Karla's love for the Hawaiian Islands led her to Maui in the mid-1990s. She quickly gained a deep understanding of the real estate industry and earned her real estate license, building on her experience as a legal assistant and paralegal which she developed working closely with top Orange County, California attorneys on high-profile real estate cases.
Karla’s real estate career soared from the start, earning her the Rookie of the Year Award with Coldwell Banker Island Properties. She became a top-producing agent, specializing in the South Kihei and Wailea.
After relocating to Oahu, Karla became the Owner and Principal Broker of Casey & Associates in Hawaii Kai. Her company was later acquired by LIST Sotheby’s International Realty, where she served as Broker-in-Charge and Vice President, growing the property management division and mentoring sales agents.
In June 2019, Karla rejoined Coldwell Banker as a Global Luxury Property Specialist on Oahu, continuing to deliver exceptional service to her clients. She affiliated with Coldwell Banker’s Honolulu office, the top sales office in the state of Hawaii.
Karla’s extensive knowledge of the Hawaii real estate market, combined with her dedication to building clients through one of the largest investments of their lives, has earned her numerous accolades, including repeated nominations for the Honolulu Board of Realtor’s Aloha Aina Award for exceptional service to her clients. Known for her strong work ethic and commitment to client satisfaction, Karla goes above and beyond to ensure each transaction is a success.
Outside of work, Karla enjoys an active lifestyle with her love of the water by surfing and sailing. Karla especially cherishes time with her family and friends.
