Meet the City Leader:
Diane van der Goes
Hi there! I’m Diane van der Goes, your guide to all things brunch in the lovely Huntington Beach. As the co-leader of our local GalsThatBrunch Huntington Beach chapter, I’m thrilled to focus on what I love most—bringing people together. Whether it's over a shared meal or through engaging conversations, I aim to foster a community where lasting friendships are formed. Join us for laughter, good food, and the joy of meeting new friends in our beautiful city.
Alongside my wonderful husband, I have the privilege of selling homes in our beautiful Orange County, helping families find their perfect space to make memories. In addition to my real estate endeavors, I own and operate Center Stage Home Decor, a premier home staging company, which allows me to enhance the beauty and appeal of homes on the market. With over 25 years in the real estate business, including my role managing a top-producing office, I bring a wealth of experience to our community. Additionally, as a Certified Performance Coach, I am passionate about helping individuals evolve from where they are to where they want to be. Now, as an empty nester, I’m excited to channel these passions into creating warm, inviting experiences where friendships flourish over delicious brunches.
Living, working, and playing in Huntington Beach has deepened my appreciation for our community. I am eager to explore new brunch spots and share fun adventures, ensuring each meetup is filled with laughter, good food, and great company. At our gatherings, you'll find a friendly space where every woman can feel supported and inspired to reach her fullest potential. Let’s make every brunch a delightful celebration of new connections and cherished moments!
Kendyl McCall
Hello! My name is Kendyl. My family moved to Orange County when I was a toddler and I have been a SoCal girl ever since. I spent my college years in Long Beach and majority of my twenties living and working in San Diego. After a brief stint in the Bay Area, I have been back in my hometown of Fountain Valley for the last four years.
I have been working as a Global Supply Chain Specialist for the past six years, which supports my absolute first love, to travel. I am extremely passionate about seeing new places and learning new things. As a history major my ultimate goal has always been to visit all 50 states.
I am also a first time mom, which has been the greatest adventure in my life. Motherhood has allowed me to fully embrace my love for crafting or anything Disney. The joys and challenges of this new role also left me looking for an outlet to meet new friends and share new experiences in this season of my life.
I am so excited to join the GTB team, the women I have met thus far are truly inspiring and there’s nothing like meeting new friends and faces over a delicious meal.
Cheers!!
