With 15 years as a realtor specializing in wine country properties, Ciera brings both professional expertise and personal experience to every transaction. Growing up in Montecito, California with her father as one of the top agents in the area, she only knew quality homes and exceptional real estate. After earning degrees in Accounting and Music from UCSB, she pursued a Doctorate in Music at UCLA. While building a career in opera, she met her husband Mark Adams—a sound effects editor at Sony and fellow musician—in Los Angeles. A Templeton native, Mark had always dreamed of returning to his family ranch on the Westside of Paso Robles.
Together, they made that dream a reality, planting their own vines on the family ranch in 2004 and launching Ledge Vineyards in 2009, which has since earned a perfect 100-point score from Jeb Dunnuck. As word spread about their success, people began asking Ciera for advice—about finding quality land for planting, navigating the regulations for building a winery, or finding a beautiful home in San Luis Obispo. The demand made her decision clear: becoming a realtor was the natural next step, and it quickly became a passion, likely rooted in how she grew up.
Today, Ciera loves guiding clients through every aspect of rural living and running their own business. With firsthand experience planting a vineyard, operating her own label, and raising a family in Paso Robles wine country, she is truly an expert. If you're ready to realize your wine country dream, Ciera is the realtor to call.
