New Season, New Adventures: A Cozy Holiday Update
I've been a bit quiet lately, swept up in the whirlwind of fall festivities, a dynamic real estate market, and celebrating my milestone 40th birthday! Now, as we edge toward the holiday season, I'm excited to share some festive insights and market updates.
Thanksgiving: Getting Kids Involved
There's something special about Thanksgiving's emphasis on togetherness. For those hosting at home this year, I have a delightful DIY project to share. Create eco-friendly napkin rings using foraged materials and upcycled paper towel rolls. It's a perfect way to keep little ones engaged while preparing for the feast. My son is already excited about his upcoming nature scavenging mission!

Real Estate Market Update
Growing up as a contractor’s daughter, the smell of sawdust and the hum of renovation projects were just part of my everyday life. I didn’t just witness homes being built—I watched dreams take shape, families settle in, and legacies form one project at a time. That upbringing gave me an eye for detail, a passion for design, and an appreciation for how a home can shape the way we live.
If you're searching for the perfect blend of small-town charm and big-city accessibility, it's time to take a closer look at Mount Kisco, New York. This charming Westchester gem has been quietly establishing itself as one of the area's most desirable places to call home, and once you discover what it has to offer, you'll understand why savvy homebuyers are taking notice.
Growing up as a contractor's daughter, I was immersed in the world of construction and renovation from day one. While other kids were playing house with dolls, I was learning about foundation repair, watching walls come down, and seeing spaces transform from the ground up. Those early experiences taught me to see beyond what exists and envision what could be—a skill that would prove invaluable in my real estate career.
