My first visit to Costa Rica was in 2002.  I immediately fell in love with the warmth of the climate and people.  After spending two weeks in San Jose, Puerto Viejo on the Caribbean side, and then Tamarindo in Guanacaste, I knew I would return sooner than later.  Sooner came just 6 months later when my uncle mentioned he was flying down to Costa Rica to close on a piece of property in the Southern Pacific Zone.  On that trip I found my own piece of paradise above the small town of San Buenaventura, current site of the San Buenas Golf Resort & Spa.  Two years and 8 trips later, I decided to move to Costa Rica full time.  Every day, I am thankful for that decision.

I was formally educated at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo with a B.A. in English.  I love to write, primarily non-fiction essays fueled by the interesting people and events that fill my days, and informative articles for our Guys In The Zone blog.  I worked as a Realtor® for the top real estate company in Santa Cruz, California.  Now, I share my knowledge of this emerging area with those who want to purchase their own piece of paradise.  Pura vida.

Ben's note: The basic mission statement of our office is to "take care of the client, and the rest'll take care of itself". I have personally witnessed Rod's dedication to this approach to business in action, and I believe that he embraced it long before he ever found Guys In The Zone. Rod and I work in the Uvita Office as a sort of tag team, which allows us to be more attentive to our clients; there is not a proprietary view of the client. I don't think that our clients notice much difference in the professionalism of service they receive between us. I heartily recommend Rod as a great choice in the selection of your Costa Rica real estate agent.
