Partner I Licensed REALTOR®

Cécile moved to Vancouver from Hong Kong in 1995 and studied at UBC, where she obtained her Bachelor of Science degree. Her love of working with people drew her into real estate in 2003, when she joined Macdonald Realty as an assistant and became licensed in 2005. Cécile has extensive experience, and she loves helping both buyers and sellers with one of their most important decisions in their life. With much patience and expert listening skills, Cécile helps her clients find the right home, and ensures the process goes as smoothly as possible. Seeing satisfied clients is her biggest reward, especially helping first-time buyers finding their very first home. Cécile speaks fluent English, Cantonese and conversational Mandarin, bringing much value to the team.


During her free time, Cécile enjoys spending time outdoor in nature. She loves skiing, mountain biking in the North Shore, SFU mountain and Whistler, or just simply cruising her bicycle along the seawall and UBC Pacific Spirit Park with her son. Cécile loves animals. Some of her favourite moments are scuba diving with sea turtles, manta rays and the magnificent sharks. Yes, she loves sharks! And she loves her family. Cécile teaches her son the value of family, that no matter how busy she is, she has to visit her 101 years old grandmother every week.

Cécile also cares about her environment and community. She often brings her son to participate in different volunteering experiences.

Jenny, born and raised in Vancouver, has been part of the Macdonald Realty family for as long as she can remember. Following in the footsteps of her father, Fred Warkentin, Jenny became a licensed Realtor in 2005. Prior to that, while attending UBC she worked as an assistant to two of the most well-respected realtors in Vancouver's West Side. It was during that time she honed the administrative skills which make a transaction flow smoothly from beginning to end. Competing in a difficult market yet helping her clients maintain focus on their objectives is a balancing act which Jenny manages very well. Her compassion, market savvy, and a willingness to go the extra mile are all reasons why Jenny has loyal clients who consistently refer their family and friends to her. 

Adrian Fung

TEAM MEMBER I Licensed REALTOR®
778-751-8808 I Email me

Adrian Fung arrived in Vancouver at the age of 12 with his parents and sister from Hong Kong. After secondary school, he graduated from UBC with a major in Civil Engineering and a minor in Commerce.
 
Before becoming a Vancouver REALTOR, he worked as a project manager for an international financial institution for 12 years followed by a sales and marketing career with a telecom company. Both built the multidimensional skills required to be a successful REALTOR, which are enhanced by his keen interest in real property and investment.

 
Adrian is a gentle man who endeavours to provide the highest level of service to his clients. He knows buyers and sellers rely on him for accurate, reliable and honest information upon which they will make one of the most important decisions of their life. He puts their real estate goals at the top of his list and works hard to ensure their success. 
 
To relax, he enjoys family and friends, and voraciously reads current information about anything happening in the world; consequently, family, friends and clients often seek him out for information or his opinion. Outdoor activities are also part of his rejuvenation. In the summer, you will find him camping and hiking in the woods. In the winter his passion is skiing. Best of all, they are both activities he enjoys with his family while he builds favorite memories for the future.

As a way to say thank you to his community, he encourages volunteerism. As he is fluent in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin (both written and verbal), he volunteers as translator/interpreter at his son’s school and a scout leader at a local scout group in Richmond.
