Diana Starbuck, born and raised in Toronto, has been a resident of the Sunshine Coast for 35 years. Being a single mom, after her 2 children were in their teens, she returned to school, as a mature student, in the 1980's taking a 2 year financial management course, at Capilano College studying marketing, accounting, law, and other business related courses.

When she began her real estate career in 1990, having this business related background helped with her immediate success. Diana achieved the prestigious "Medallion Club" award (top 10% of all REALTORS^TM of the Greater Vancouver Real Estate Board) in her first year, and every year for 18 years.

Diana - The Artist

DIANA STARBUCK, moved to the Sunshine Coast over 35 years ago. Because of her love of animals, she had always dreamed of living in the country.

She began painting in oils, back in the 1970's, but had to put painting on hold, while she returned to school as a mature student to Capilano College, in order to obtain a better job. Her new and demanding career in RealEstate began in 1990, but working 7 days a week, meant still no time for being creative, artistic desires.

Seven years ago, under the instruction of a local artist, Diana "made time" for painting, this time in acrylics. Her colourful paintings of animals, gardens, and favourite places, reflect her love of the Sunshine Coast. View Diana's Art website

Residing now, with husband Dave, in Roberts Creek with her horse, "Joy" ; Black Lab "Roy", rescued Yellow Lab/ Hound cross, "Tracker", and "Dolly" the miniature horse - Diana is grateful to be living her childhood dream!
