For Sally Ferrell, the memories are many…Exploring the African wilderness near her grandparents’ gold mine. The bustling and crowded streets of Seoul, South Korea, so starkly different from the African expanse of open space. The solid and imposing presence of the Châteaux of the Loire Valley. The waves in shimmering shades of emerald and turquoise along the Amalfi Coast, and the brightly colored umbrellas that dot the beach on St. Bart’s Island. All are recollections from Sally’s many travels that remain as powerful as when she first experienced them. Each one has helped to shape her character.
For Sally, this is what travel is all about. This talented professional has visited many exotic enclaves over the years, traversing four continents to explore different cultures and lifestyles. “Every experience was an opportunity to learn something new,” Sally says. “That’s what makes travel so rich.” As this talented professional sees it, the best way to broaden your perspective is to truly experience the world in all of its diversity—and gain new wisdom and insight from it.
Raised on a Gold Mine in South Africa, Sally gained her sense of adventure from exploring the rich African continent. Her family moved to Seoul, South Korea when she was 14, where she attended the American International School with students from all over the world. She returned to South Africa to attend boarding school, and embraced her newfound independence. At 21, Sally arrived in the U.S. with nothing more than enthusiasm and $500 in her pocket. “I was definitely scared,” she remembers, “but I was also thrilled about beginning a new life here!”.
Sally love of technology and her studies in architecture and design, have been an invaluable asset in her marketing and selling of luxury real estate. She embarked on a successful career in sales and marketing within the computer industry, culminating in a position as a Partner and Sales Account Manager at Microsoft Southern California. The broad perspective she had gained through her overseas experiences played a major part in her success “I had to envision the best ways to reach both business and consumer audiences,” she recalls. “I have spent most of my life in different cultures, and the insights I have gained continue to enable me to envision the world through other people’s eyes—which fed my creativity and success.”
That strong vision has proved just as valuable in Sally’s career as a real estate professional. The spirit of inquisitiveness that informs her outlook helps her to provide exceptionally personalized service to a diverse group of clients from different backgrounds and cultures. Sally’s clients also benefit from her exceptional expertise in strategic planning and marketing development, and the unique perspective it’s given her of the real estate process.
