In Sonoma Valley, a region defined as much by its rolling vineyards as its entrepreneurial spirit, Natasha Martinez has emerged as one of the area’s most dynamic professionals. Known for her efficiency, adaptability and unmistakable optimism, she has built a career that bridges corporate strategy, brand development and high-end real estate.

Her résumé spans an unusually broad spectrum: she has represented national and start-up food brands as a brand ambassador, worked closely with CEOs and other top executives as a personal assistant, and helped guide clients through the complexities of luxury residential transactions. Along the way, she has also launched ventures of her own, a testament to her willingness to take risks and her drive to lead.

Raised in Sonoma, she is not just selling property—she is translating a way of life. A graduate of Sonoma Valley High School and Sonoma State University, she leverages her intimate knowledge of the Valley’s neighborhoods, culture and market trends to help clients navigate a region that is as competitive as it is charming.

Colleagues say her success is rooted not only in ambition but also in authenticity—and in the personal warmth she brings to every interaction. Her captivating smile and approachable presence have a way of disarming stress, turning negotiations into conversations and clients into friends.

Outside of work, her focus returns to her family and community. She spends her free time with her husband and two young children, exploring Sonoma’s bike paths, and catching up with friends over a glass of champagne in Sonoma’s historic and charming Plaza—a reminder that for her, the story of Sonoma is personal.
