I AM PENSACOLA - Pam Homyak

What is your hometown, what brought you 

to the Pensacola area and how long have 

you been here.

I was born in Pensacola, and have lived here all 

my life.  This is why “Heritage Tourism” is so 

important to me.  Just like Pensacola, I too, am a 

product of it’s “Five Flags.  I am Spanish, French, 

English, & Creek Indian.

What is your profession and give a brief 

description of what you do. 

I’m a Realtor-Sales Agent for DSLD Homes. 

DSLD Homes has just entered the Florida market, 

and I am their site sales agent for the newest Gulf 

Breeze community on Soundside Drive, called  

“The Waters”.  My newest passion is helping grow 

Pensacola’s “heritage tourism”, by bringing more 

experiences that immerse one into our rich history. 

The Jacksonian Guard was a great addition to 

Historic Downtown, a reenactment of 18th century 

soldiers perform a colors ceremony of the transfer of 

Spanish Florida to a U.S. Territory. The ceremony 

is performed monthly, on the 3rd Saturday of each 

month, 12 Noon, in Plaza Ferdinand.

What led you to choose this profession?

 I got the fever from my husband who has been in 

commercial real estate for 35 years, so his love and 

passion eventually pulled me out of healthcare sales 

into in his world.

What do you like best about Pensacola? 

What makes it unique?

I can say that we have the best of all the worlds, and 

that alone, makes Pensacola a very unique, special 

place, encompassing both nationally acclaimed 

beaches and historical downtown.  I love most 

and am fascinated by Pensacola’s rich history.  I 

also love our people as they make Pensacola great 

with their community spirit and philanthropy, 

patriotism-as home of the Blue Angels and cradle 

of Naval Aviation, our arts and culture-Symphony, 

Theatre, Ballet, and Opera.  These are assets, you 

usually don’t have in a small town, but it’s the 

combined community effort that makes Pensacola 

great!

Three words that best describe you. 

Relentless, Patient, Grateful

Favorite Things you like about Pensacola.

My favorite things are…Historic Pensacola, sugar 

white Beaches, Pensacola Symphony, Blue Wahoo’s 

Baseball, US Navy Blue Angels, & Downtown’s 

First City Lights Festival.

Finish this statement, I AM PENSACOLA 

because…

It’s literally in my blood, and in all my travels, I 

can’t imagine living any other place.
