MEET THE STAFF OF SUNSET PROPERTIES

Welcome to the Beach!

Pam Armistead

Pam Armistead - Maintenance Coordinator


I moved from New York in 2011 to be closer to my parents. I started working for Sunset Properties in 2012 in the Housekeeping Department. I moved to the Maintenance Department in 2023. My favorite thing about living at the beach is the ability to go whenever I want, as it's just a few minutes away. We love to launch the jet ski and just ride for hours up and down the waterway. I work closely with the homeowners and vendors to make sure they have an enjoyable vacation.

Al Ward

Al Ward - General Manager

My wife and I are natives of southern Brunswick County and have 3 married children with 6 grandchildren. I love the perfect mix of rural living and beach life. I can easily enjoy a day in the country or on the water in my boat and enjoy our impressive local views. I have worked full time in real estate since 2005 and joined Sunset Properties in 2013. I enjoy working with our homeowners and as GM, help to facilitate operating in all departments.

Hannah Frink

Hannah Frink - Accounting

I grew up coming to Sunset Beach to visit family and have always felt at home here. I met my now husband here as kids playing on the beach. After living in Virginia for a few years, we decided to move back with our two young children in 2020 to be closer to family. I started working at Sunset Properties in 2021 in accounting and have enjoyed my time working the staff, homeowners, and guests.

Liz Brown

Liz Brown - Reservations

I moved from Delaware in 2011 to Little River, SC and moved to Brunswick County in 2013. I grew up visiting Delaware and Maryland beaches and I definitely prefer the beaches down here. Sunset Beach has been a favorite since moving to the area because of the calmer pace and beautiful scenery. I started working for Sunset Properties in 2025 in the reservations department. My favorite part is getting to help all of the excited guests that are planning their family trip.

Shelly Lewis

Shelly Lewis - Reservations

I started with Sunset Properties in winter of 2024. It has been a breath of fresh air working with such a great team who value quality customer service as much as I do. Sunset beach has always been mine and my family’s absolute favorite place to soak up the sun, fish, and watch the waves. I work in the Reservations Department, working closely with guests to ensure that their vacation is the best it can be.

Sean Janiec

Sean Janiec - Reservations Manager

I moved to Sunset Beach in 2016 with my wife who is from the area. We both love the beach and wanted to be close to family. I started working at Sunset Properties in 2024 as a reservationist. I really enjoy helping our guests plan their vacation and make memories for years to come.

Peggy McGuinness

Peggy McGuinness - Vacation Rental Manager

I have lived in Sunset Beach for 22 years. I moved from NJ and other than family, I have never looked back. The best part of living at the beach for me is proximity to the ocean. I grew up vacationing at the Jersey Shore and long summer days at the beach invoke joyful memories of childhood summers and family vacations. I work with owners and guests to ensure the best vacation and property condition possible.


Jamey Mann

Jamey Mann - Maintenance

I moved to Sunset Beach in 2019 from Chapel Hill. I am a proud NC native. I started working for Sunset Properties in 2020 hoping to work part time and do some traveling. However, once I arrived at the beach, I realized I couldn’t leave the beautiful beach behind. I work in Maintenance full time to help assist guests during their stay as well as prepare properties in advance for owner and guest arrivals.

Tom Seletyn

I relocated here from West Virginia. I started with Sunset Properties in April 2018. I work with the Maintenance department, helping to prepare properties for rental and assisting guests during their stay.


Amanda Pearce

Amanda Pearce - Maintenance

I was born and raised in SC. Growing up, coming to Sunset Beach, is a trip we took at least once a week, just to get out of the house, or to take a Sunday drive. I have two boys, one grandson and a granddaughter. I have been with this wonderful company since 2022. I enjoy the people that I work with and share their values.  I take pride in making sure each property is well taken care of. If there are any maintenance issues during your stay, I will do everything possible to get them fixed in a timely manner.

Tracy Thibaudeau

Tracy Thibaudeau -  Housekeeping

I moved to Sunset Beach in 2020 to be able to spend more time with my mom. I have loved living at the beach and enjoying all this area has to offer. I started working for Sunset Properties in 2022 as a reservationist and then transitioned into our housekeeping department. I truly enjoy working with all of our owners, guests, and cleaning staff to provide a wonderful vacation experience for our visitors.

Sev Severtson

Sev Severtson - Maintenance


I've lived in the area for about 4 years, but have been visiting for the past 21 years. I like the pace of life and really like the weather in the fall and spring. I was blessed enough to have joined what I feel is my second family to me in January 2018. As the Maintenance Director, my main role is to handle the logistics of anything maintenance-related. From something as minor as a bulb replacement to major issues such as HVAC repairs, I work closely with our maintenance coordinator and techs in preparing houses for rental and assisting guests during their stay. It is important to ensure that service requests are handled in a timely manner so communicating with guests and owners is a critical aspect of my job.

Raquel Williams

Raquel Williams - Housekeeping

I moved from Pittsburgh PA with my husband and two kids in 2022. We loved the beach so much from past vacations, that we wanted to live here. I started working at Sunset Properties in the beginning of 2025 as an assistant in the housekeeping department. Working with all the staff, owners and the guests has been truly rewarding, working to create an amazing time for everyone.
