About Leslie
Director of Operations & Real Estate Advisor | The Kendall Hood Collection
Born and raised in Gulf Breeze, Florida, Leslie Evans has always had a deep connection to the Emerald Coast. After spending a decade in Atlanta, she and her husband, Zane, felt the pull of the Gulf’s sugar-white sands and emerald waters, leading them to return home in 2024.
As the Director of Operations for The Kendall Hood Collection, Leslie plays a vital role in streamlining processes, optimizing client experiences, and ensuring the team operates at the highest level. With over a decade of experience in real estate and leading top-performing teams, she seamlessly blends her operational expertise with her passion for helping clients achieve their goals.
In addition to her leadership role, Leslie serves as a trusted real estate adviser specializing in Pensacola and Gulf Breeze. Her local knowledge, hands-on approach, and dedication to client success make her a go-to resource for buyers and sellers along the Gulf Coast.
In her free time, Leslie enjoys spending beach days with her family, brunching at The Grand Marlin, and exploring the charm of downtown Pensacola—whether it’s browsing local boutiques or trying out the latest restaurant openings.
