This is the perfect summer salad!

Peach, Fig, and Arugula Salad with Spicy Lemon Honey Vinaigrette

First, prepare the vinaigrette: Combine one garlic clove, minced, lemon juice from 1 lemon, 2 tbsp. honey, 1 tbsp. sriracha, and salt in a lidded jar. Add ¾ c. olive oil and shake well until incorporated.
Next, assemble the salad: Spread arugula on a large platter and add sliced peaches, figs, dates, and shallots and toss with about 2 tbsp. of the vinaigrette.
Enjoy!

When it comes to your home, safety should be a top priority. Here are a few ways to keep yourself and your loved ones safe.
1. Upgrade to a smart home security system for greater protection.
2. Check that all your doors, locks, and windows are in working condition and install any additional tamperproof deadbolts.
3. Change the batteries in your smoke alarms at least once a year and replace any alarms older than ten years.
4. Childproof your kitchen, cleaning supplies, and stairs to prevent any young children from getting into hazardous materials.

What a phenomenal day at the Real Estate Rumble 2026! 🏆☀️
Brokerage teams from all over the area came together to compete in an epic series of field games, all for an incredible cause: supporting the local chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association. 💜

While we didn’t walk away with the official Rumble Champion win, we brought the ultimate energy—and proudly took home the title of Most Spirited! 🎉🔥

Events like this are so deeply important because nearly all of us have a story to tell and are impacted by Alzheimer’s and all other dementia, witnessing firsthand the profound emotional and physical toll it takes on our loved ones and their dedicated caregivers. As a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES), I see how deeply these health transitions impact housing and legacy decisions for maturing adults. Stepping onto the field to raise funds and awareness is our way of standing with those families, providing a “vetted village” of support, and fighting for a cure.

At the end of the day, the real win was coming together as a real estate community to support families affected by Alzheimer’s. A huge thank you to our team captain, , the BHHS team, our fellow competitors, and everyone who donated to make this event a massive success! 🙌

Check out some of our favorite moments from the field! 📸🏃‍♀️💜

We are officially dropping into Week 2 of our June challenge, and the motivation is high! Damon and I are staying locked into our commitment to get in at least 30 minutes of daily exercise for 5 out of 7 days a week.

A huge Shout-Out to everyone who has jumped into this challenge alongside us—seeing your energy and commitment keeps us going!

As we kick off this fresh week, don't forget to set specific, measurable goals for yourself. For Damon and me, we are putting a special emphasis on:

• ...and exactly WHEN we are eating it! (You know how those late-nights sneak up! ⏱️😂)

It’s not too late to join us! You can start exactly where you are today.
Drop a comment below and share one or two of your wellness goals for the week. Let’s get it!

🏡✨ Congratulations to my wonderful client on closing on her brand-new construction townhouse!
As a first-time homebuyer, this journey came with many decisions, questions, and milestones. When she realized she needed more guidance and support than she was receiving, she made the courageous decision to make a change—and I was honored to step in and help navigate the process from there.
Watching her confidence grow as we moved from contract to closing has been incredibly rewarding. Today, she is officially a homeowner, and I couldn't be happier for her!
As a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES®), I am equipped to serve the unique needs of maturing clients—whether buying, selling, relocating, refinancing, or rightsizing—so they can make life-changing decisions with clarity, confidence, and peace of mind.
Thank you for trusting me to be part of this special chapter. Wishing you many years of happiness, comfort, and beautiful memories in your new home! 🔑🏡💜
