Stacey Butera was inspired to leave her career in education
to pursue a career in real estate by the incredible example of service set by her broker, Amanda D’Angelo, and all the agents at Coastal Realty Group. “They are all so passionate about providing the best real estate services to their clients, and that passion inspired me to join the team!” said Butera.
While it may sound cliché, Butera truly does love helping people. “For most people, a real estate transaction is an exciting adventure and one of the biggest purchases they will ever make,” she says. “Sometimes though, it’s a scary transition that someone is making because of unavoidable life changes. Either way, I enjoy guiding people through the process and being their sounding board, shoulder to cry on, or enthusiastic supporter – whatever they might need to move forward!”

Laurri Garcia grew up in Texas. At 19 she travelled to Europe where she ended up beginning her civil service career. “Travel has inspired me throughout my career and personal life,” she says. She served 32 years with the United States Department of Defense.
Over 30 years ago, Garcia worked briefly at Keesler Air Force Base and fell in love – both with the Gulf Coast, and her husband. In June 2022, Garcia retired from civil service to the Coast.
“I thought I was ready to settle down, but after a few months, I was about to lose my mind!” Garcia explains. A friend suggested she look into real estate, and she now loves her career change.
Garcia believes that life is too short and too precious not to enjoy it. She laughs a lot and loves football, especially the Dallas Cowboys.
