Suzanne launched her real estate career in 1991, quickly emerging as one of California's most respected agents. With over $1.4 billion in career sales since 2007 and multiple years as the #1 agent in the Santa Barbara area, Suzanne cemented her status as an industry leader. Her representation of the historic El Cojo and Jalama Ranches - the largest noncommercial real estate transaction in California history - propelled her to become the #1 agent in the nation. Before real estate, she traveled the world as a Pan Am flight attendant and later In-Flight Service Director on the Boeing 747, bravely serving on Department of Defense missions during the Vietnam War. Perry's entrepreneurial journey was rooted in ambition and craftsmanship. Born in Arkansas and raised in Colorado, he built a successful career as a commercial real estate developer before turning his creativity toward Lifestyle Antiques, which showcased rare pieces collected from around the globe. His artistry extended to interior design, gardening, and nurturing his beloved plumeria collection - pursuits that reflected his eye for beauty and appreciation for fine detail. His integrity and warm, welcoming spirit made him a natural builder of relationships as much as properties. Long before their careers soared, Suzanne and Perry were united by a lifelong passion for horses. Suzanne, a third-generation horsewoman from Lexington, Kentucky, and Perry, inspired by his uncle and the legendary champion Khemosabi, found in each other a shared devotion to breeding horses. Together, they bred, trained, and showed generations of Champion Arabian and Half-Arabian horses. Through real estate, interior design, ranching, and the equestrian world, Suzanne and Perry built a life steeped in integrity, generosity, and an enduring legacy that continues to touch lives and celebrate the beauty of land, home, and heritage.'
