Eric Pfeifer

Eric Pfeifer grew up in Baltimore, Maryland where he attended the Gilman School for Boys and later graduated from Vanderbilt University with a degree in Civil Engineering. Eric worked as an Engineer and Project Manager on jobs in both Georgia and Florida building bridges and wharves and beltways. Eric later joined his two older brothers in a family business where they grew their company rapidly, earning recognition from Inc. 500 for two consecutive years as one of the fastest-growing companies in the United States.

As a business owner managing over 80 employees, family vacations to Sanibel were always too short and too far between. After the birth of his second child in 1998, Eric and his wife decided that Sanibel could no longer be just a dream put off for future retirement, but a home for their family year-round. The Pfeifer family moved to Sanibel full-time in 2001.

Sanibel's lack of demand for Professional Engineers prompted Pfeifer to launch a new career in Real Estate. He was quickly recognized as Sanibel & Captiva’s “Real Estate Rookie Realtor of the Year” by fellow Realtors in 2002 and went on to open his own Brokerage, Pfeifer Realty Group in 2008. As a 7-time recipient of the Sanibel Captiva Community Service Award and former Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year, Eric continues to set the bar high for every team member fostering a culture of service and community support.

Pfeifer is currently the Vice-Chair of the Sanibel Planning Commission, President of Shell Harbor's HOA, and has served on the Sanibel Captiva Kiwanis Club Board for 21 years.

Rachel Pierce

A lifelong artist, Rachel grew up in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin and went to college in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, where art classes were a major focus of her studies.

Ultimately, it was her passion for journalism that launched her on a 19-year career - 17 of those as a TV desk anchor - first in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, followed by Omaha and Des Moines, and finally Fort Myers, Florida, where she currently resides with her husband and their four young children.

Rachel's return to art was unexpected. As an active member of the community and a well-known TV personality in Southwest Florida, she is asked to emcee dozens of local events every year. In 2018 she was invited to be a celebrity painter and create a design on a large ceramic platter for a fundraising auction benefiting a local non-profit.

It wasn't long before commission requests started, and within a year of selling her first painting, what had begun as a passion and faded into an occasional hobby was now quickly becoming a second career.

After selling dozens of pieces and donating dozens more, Rachel decided to step away from the anchor desk and fulfill her first dream - becoming a full-time artist.

Though she loved her career in journalism - maybe not those daily 2 a.m. alarms - being an artist means painting whenever she wants while, most importantly, being home to raise her four children with her husband.

 Since her retirement in 2012, Lisa has spent her free time getting involved in the Captiva community.  Beginning in 2013 she joined the Board of her homeowner’s association and has served as President for 5 years.  In 2015 she was invited to join the Captiva Memorial Library Board of Trustees and has served as the President for the last 3 years.  In 2015 she was also invited to join the Board of Governors of the Captiva Civic Association and served as the President for 3 years before currently serving as Treasurer.  She was appointed to the Captiva Civic Association Foundation Board of Governors, the fund-raising vehicle of the Civic Association, in 2017 and continues to serve there as President.
