Giovanna escaped the city life in Toronto and relocated to the East Kootenays in 2015, looking to be closer to nature and build a sense of community. Originally from Perú, Gio's friendly and caring personality comes through in everything she does, and it did not take long for her to settle into her new hometown of Cranbrook. With extensive customer service, marketing and entrepreneurial skills, she has a passion for making everyone feel as at home as she does in this wonderful part of the world. Gio is privileged to work with a fantastic team at 2% Realty as an Associate Broker. Since embarking on her real estate career in 2019, she has been a Top Producer in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. Positive thinking, integrity, transparency and hard work are Giovanna's core values. Professional yet personable, Giovanna is extremely knowledgeable about the local housing market and works tirelessly to get the best outcome possible for all her clients. When she's not helping others find their dream home or managing listings, Giovanna volunteers with the Cranbrook Rotary Club, which she feels proud to be part of. She can also be found assisting clients with home staging - she recently completed her Home Staging diploma in 2022 and excels at designing warm, comfortable spaces. A talented jewelry creator and previous jewelry instructor in Toronto, Giovanna has practiced the art of Peruvian wire crochet for decades. She is also a dedicated mother and can be found spending time with her family outdoors, enjoying the Kootenay lifestyle.
