Cynthia Kolbenheyer 

Launched Open Minded Concierge in September 2008, believing the need existed for a high end concierge company to cater to residents and visitors to the Hamptons. After graduating from SUNY New Paltz with a BA in English, Cynthia moved to NYC to further her career, working for Lord & Taylor in their flagship 5th Avenue store as a branch assistant buyer.  But when the summer months approached, Cynthia knew she wanted to live in the exquisite beach community of Southampton. Cynthia launched Clothes Minded, a womens clothing store that was a fixture on Jobs Lane for over 25 years.   After getting her real estate license and working in the local real estate industry, Cynthia saw the need for a luxury concierge service.   Her local connections, together with her business accuman, combined to make Open Minded a success from the moment she opened the door.

It took over eight months to gather all who would participate in the Open Minded network. A vetting process began for anyone who was to be included, to be certain that the service provider for each category was exemplary in all ways. From reliability to excellence, all of the businesses in the Open Minded network share this common denominator: they are the best at what they do. After all, they are an extension of Open Minded Concierge.

The Concierge continues to search for the best vendors in the community, thereby broadening the Open Minded network as well as offering to the discerning client an eclectic choice of top end service providers.

Cynthia continues to live in Southampton with her husband Kevin.
