Shirlene Elkins fell in love with Naples, Florida more than 30 years ago while on vacation. Deciding to move from Maryland and make Naples her full-time home, she cultivated an enduring connection to Southwest Florida.

Her deep roots allow Shirlene to be extremely active in the community. As a founding trustee of the successful Naples Winter Wine Festival and the first female chair in 2004, she continues to participate annually in hosting one of its exclusive dinners.

An ability to excel at what she does led Shirlene to become one of the top Realtors in the area. She has the distinction of listing and selling the most expensive property in Collier County in 2015.

Shirlene has served on the boards of the lmmokalee Foundation, Naples Philharmonic, the Golisano Children's Museum of Naples, as well as the Naples Children and Education Foundation, Youth Haven, Boys and Girls Club and David Lawrence Center. She has been committed from its inception to support the American Cancer Society and its successful Bucket List Bash, where she was co-chair in 2019. Shirlene was named one of the Gulfshore Life's 2010 Women of the Year.

Traveling the world and mastering her cooking skills are two of her favorite pastimes. She cherishes her time with her three grandchildren and treasures making memories with them.
