After helping hundreds of clients relocate to their ideal home, Diana Rubottom has found her own ideal home away from home. Three of them, to be precise. She is the new manager of our Rancho Santa Fe Village, Fairbanks Ranch and Del Rayo offices.
A Relocation Certified Fine Homes Specialist, Rubottom recently relocated herself after several years at the Newport Beach office. She is as excited about the move as any of her clients were about theirs.
“I was willing to relocate to wherever the company wanted me,” said Rubottom, who has been licensed since 1990 and formerly owned a real estate franchise in the Monterey-Carmel region. “I was thrilled when the Rancho Santa Fe position became available. I have been extremely impressed by the professionalism everyone demonstrates in my three offices. I worked over 23 years to find the perfect place and this is it.”

Renowned as one of the world’s most expensive luxury car brands, Range Rover has outdone itself again by partnering with gunsmiths Holland & Holland on a limited-edition SUV. With a price tag of $286,000, the Holland & Holland Range Rover combines quality engineering with sumptuous style that can sport you out for a round of target practice in the morning and still be presentable enough for a date at the opera in the evening.
Based on the top-of-the-line Range Rover Autobiography Black, everything from the interior to the exterior is specifically designed to cater to the most discriminating customers. Holland & Holland specializes in fine engraving of fine products, and nowhere does this centuries-honed skill shine brighter than in the accents of this special edition car. Whether in the single piece of solid-walnut center console, or the spectacularly scrolled door handles, everything that carries the Holland & Holland logo represents the highest level of dedication to quality.

With its year-round sunshine, unique water profile and influx of immigrants bringing their unique spin on the world’s favorite alcoholic beverage, it’s no wonder that San Diego is the microbrew capital of the world. Anyone who is anyone comes to San Diego to develop their brewing, and some of the most successful microbrews have launched from just about every location and corner of America’s Finest City.
One of the newest locations with a unique take on the art of the microbrewery is Groundswell Brewing Company in San Diego’s Mission Valley. This location is ideally suited for their operations, as it is conveniently situated in the center of the county, is close to many residential areas and San Diego State University, and near the nexus of the area’s freeway system. That’s not what sets it apart, however.

Dermalogica founder and visionary Jane Wurwand creates a new initiative to beautifully support female entrepreneurs.
Commanding the stage at Dermalogica’s sprawling 145,000-square-foot headquarters in Carson, Calif., founder Jane Wurwand introduces her success story to a group of potential dermatology students. Reactions in the room range from inspiration to enthusiasm and, in many cases, awe.
Wurwand’s determination and accomplishments are so impressive, it’s hard not to be intimidated. But spend time talking to her and you discover that although her vision for Dermalogica was clear from the start, her multimillion-dollar empire was built slowly, one step at a time. It’s a message she has conveyed to the more than 100,000 skin therapists her company has trained since its inception in 1986 and one she now spreads as founder of Financial Independence Through Entrepreneurship, which issues microfinance loans to women worldwide. This month, the nonprofit rolls out its new FITE Future Entrepreneurs program, offering at-risk women skin therapy education scholarships and training to help them build successful careers. The program was introduced this fall at the Clinton Global Initiative conference and has been lauded by Hillary Clinton herself. As for Wurwand, “The great thing about FITE, for me, is I get a chance to shine a light on an industry that empowers women economically,” she says. “When you go and you support a woman in a salon, you’re supporting a woman entrepreneur. This is a powerhouse.”
