Erica K. Amundson is a Hawai‘i-based real estate broker, ocean advocate, and community leader whose work bridges business, conservation, and lifestyle. After earning her degree in Marine Science from the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo, Erica deepened her understanding of Hawai‘i’s unique ecosystems and the importance of protecting them for future generations. That passion for preservation continues today through her service on the Board of the Conservation Council for Hawai‘i, where she helps guide efforts to protect the islands’ natural heritage.

In her professional career, Erica has built a thriving business in real estate, helping buyers and sellers navigate one of life’s most important decisions. As Broker-in-Charge of NextHome Coconut Island Realty’s Honolulu branch, she combines market expertise with a deeply personal approach, ensuring that her clients’ goals align with both financial value and lifestyle dreams. Known for her tech-savvy, ocean-friendly perspective, she has created a career that reflects her entrepreneurial drive as well as her love for Hawai‘i’s people and places.

Beyond real estate, Erica is the founder of Won Canoe, a platform for events and experiences that celebrate holistic living, storytelling, and community connection. Rooted in the symbolism of the voyaging canoe, Won Canoe reflects her belief that we are all navigating our own journeys — and that balance, health, and shared purpose are essential to staying on course.

A lifelong surfer and ocean enthusiast, Erica grounds her work in a healthy lifestyle that includes daily connection to nature through surfing, yoga, meditation, and forest walks. For her, success is not measured solely by professional accomplishments, but by the ability to live in harmony with Hawai‘i’s rhythms and give back to the community she calls home.

Whether she is hosting a market update for Hawai‘i real estate or guiding a Won Canoe holistic event, Erica brings the same passion: to serve, to connect, and to inspire others to find both prosperity and balance in their own lives.
