Meet The Team

Named "Best New Real Estate Agent" by The Monterey Herald, Elise is part of the next generation of luxury real estate professionals on the Monterey Peninsula—combining authentic local insight with a modern, client-first approach. Born and raised on the Peninsula, she understands its neighborhoods, history, and lifestyle on a level that can't be replicated, and brings that knowledge to every client she serves.

 

After earning her degree from the University of Arizona, Elise returned home to build her career in the community she loves. With a strong eye for design, a deep understanding of what today's buyers value, and a reputation for clear communication, she helps clients navigate the market with confidence. Elise brings strategic guidance to each transaction, a valuable asset in a fast-moving luxury market.

 

As a member of The Malone Hodges Team, which is backed by over 25 years of leadership, industry expertise, and $50M+ in annual sales, Elise helps deliver a tailored, high-level experience while maintaining the personal relationships and trust that define exceptional real estate.

 

Beyond real estate, Elise teaches dance at The Dance Center in Carmel and is the founder of Coastal Connect, a growing women's community dedicated to fostering meaningful relationships, supporting local businesses, and strengthening the Peninsula through connection. Elise blends heartfelt community values with the professionalism and determination clients expect from a hands on agent.
