Rick Kamino, REALTOR, was born and raised in the Upstate New York area for most of his life and is a graduate of Syracuse University. Rick moved to the Coachella Valley as a full-time resident in 2002 and thoroughly enjoys the lifestyle the Southern California Desert has to offer, a passion he enjoys sharing with his clients. Prior to earning his real estate license, Rick spent the majority of his working life in retail, marketing, and consumer product sales. After selling his retail store business in the early 1990’s, Rick embarked upon a new venture selling consumer products on television via infomercial. The plan was to introduce the product on TV first and then get further distribution in the retail stores. Rick launched many successful campaigns in that fashion, including one that earned him the prestigious honor of being awarded with the vendor of the year designation for the most innovative product of the year by a nationally known retailer. Those same tried and true skills that he executed so successfully throughout his career in retail and consumer products apply to most marketing and sales challenges and as such, they serve him well in real estate career. In addition to a love for helping others and problem-solving, Rick enjoys playing golf and is an avid downhill skier. He enjoys sharing the unique Coachella Valley lifestyle that many dream of but few ever have the chance to experience with his clients, and is proud to call the desert his home.
