Welcome to our Palm Desert office 🙌🏽 🙌🏿 🙌🏻

Introducing Margo Zender, a visionary entrepreneur and esteemed mother to Lea. With a keen business acumen, Margo played an instrumental role in founding and elevating one of the most renowned vase companies during Lea's formative years. The inception of the Flex Vase under her stewardship marked a pivotal moment, propelling it to become Europe's top-selling vase and earning prestigious accolades such as the Architectural Digest award.

Hailing from the picturesque locales of Sacramento, California, Margo's roots also trace back to Coronado. Her upbringing in a military household instilled values of dedication and service, with both her parents proudly serving in the Navy. Her journey into academia saw her graduate from high school ahead of schedule, followed by a brief stint in social work driven by her innate desire to make a difference. However, her thirst for knowledge led her to Thunderbird International School of Business, where she independently pursued a Master's in Business Administration with a focus on international business and also attended Universidad de Guadalajara in Mexico for a portion of her MBA program.

Margo's illustrious career spans various domains, from her pivotal role in identifying Palm Springs as a hub for windmill energy at the Energy Commission to her tenure as a seasoned realtor, notably contributing to the success of the Bradley office in Tiburon, CA. Yet, it was her pioneering efforts in staging, marketing, and distributing the Flex Vase to major clients that solidified her reputation as a trailblazer in the industry.

From humble beginnings to becoming a stalwart in the business world, Margo's journey is a testament to her unwavering dedication and resilience. Today, she serves as a beacon of wisdom and guidance, lending her expertise in women and wealth, as well as dignitaries and others to Lea and her esteemed clientele. Residing in Southern California, Margo remains deeply connected to both her Southern and Northern California roots while embracing the warmth of family and community. Margo is also bilingual in Spanish and English. We are indeed privileged to have Margo's remarkable leadership and business acumen enriching our lives.
