Joey Arash Amini

Joey Arash Amini has been a realtor since July 2022, when he signed with Pinnacle Estate Properties in Malibu, California. His passion for real estate began back in 2004, when he became a first-time homeowner in New York City. Malibu's awe-inspiring homes and the beauty of its many neighborhoods is what drew him to pursue real estate as a career. Prior to shifting his career to real estate, he enjoyed a highly rewarding, 20-year career as a concert cellist, after having graduated from the two most prestigious music conservatories in the world- The Curtis Institute of Music and The Juilliard School. He was a frequent performer as a soloist, chamber musician, and orchestral musician on four continents, including at some of the world's most celebrated concert halls, including Carnegie Hall, the Walt Disney Concert Hall, and at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. Since September 2018, he has been happily living in beautiful Malibu with his fashion stylist wife- Eveline, and their now 7 year old daughter- Sienna Malibu.

In addition to real estate and music, Joey Amini's many other passions include interior design, fashion, architecture, photography, art, tennis, yoga and meditation, healthy living, dining out, travel, nature, hiking,  writing, languages, veganism, animal rights activism, and all things Malibu. He is also a coffee, espresso, and matcha connoisseur and has an appreciation for all things luxury- from homes, fashion, watches, and cars to hotels and resorts.

A proud Malibu homeowner, Joey Amini is definitely no stranger to Malibu locals, having made friends with countless local and area residents from many walks of life, including families, entrepreneurs, sybarites, celebrities, realtors, lawyers, athletes, artists, actors and actresses, filmmakers, models, fashion stylists, photographers, interior designers, chefs, nutritionists, event planners, surfers, musicians, writers, reporters, teachers, CEOs and other executives, and retail, restaurant, and other small business owners and employees. His extremely friendly, warm, and calm and easy-going demeanor and gentle and caring personality makes him a friendly face, in no time, to all those that he meets. He is very involved in the Malibu community- bringing people together by organizing get-togethers, parties, and playdates and inviting many friends to local events, as well as by volunteering and being involved in various activities at his daughter's school- Our Lady of Malibu School, where he is a Room Representative and serves on the Parent Guild. He has been featured in The Malibu Times and Malibu Magazine.

Joey Amini was raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan; Fairfax, Virginia; and Gaborone, Botswana; and has also lived in Rockville, Maryland and Philadelphia. Before making Malibu his home, he lived in Manhattan for 21 years. He speaks and understands French and Swiss German and understands Farsi.
