My Present
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Kimberly Ibarra, Brand Ambassador for Northrop & Johnson. In addition to this honor, I also serve as the Principal Consultant for Superyacht East Coast, helping connect luxury markets to elevated destinations, services and experiences.
My Past
I’ve always had a natural creative flair which led me to choose a career in art, décor & design. Over the last two decades, I have worked as a designer and was CEO of a yacht refit company (Shadow Marine) where I supervised the build of the 220’ Allure Shadow Yacht (now Global). I later switched my focus to luxury, working for Boat International Media where I was able to be involved in the success of some of the most prestigious events around the globe. Having been a part of the 1% sector in my personal life, I was able to obtain an understanding that would allow me to speak in a unique way to my luxury clientele. Through this special language, I was able to launch my own consulting firm which created bespoke partnership opportunities utilizing select event and media outlets for the most sought-after companies in the world.
My Future
I see myself helping as many people as possible realize their dreams through air, land and sea luxury travel.
My Motto
It always seems impossible until it's DONE!
My Outside-office Life
I am married to my best friend, Edward, and we spend a LOT of time together which is wonderful. We love travel, cooking, staying fit (running/yoga), golf and keeping up with the current trends. Between us we have four children and seven grandchildren, so we are constantly making time for priceless family moments. I am a founding member of the International Seakeepers as well as multiple philanthropic organizations.
