🏡 A Legacy in the Desert: Frey House II & the Architecture of Place

This week, I’m sharing something a little more personal. Before my years in real estate, I spent time as a docent at the Palm Springs Art Museum—following in the footsteps of my mother. One of the most meaningful parts of that journey was leading tours of Frey House II, a mid-century architectural gem nestled into the hillside above Palm Springs.

I’ve put together a reflection on this experience, the beauty of Desert Modernism, and why Frey’s philosophy still inspires the way I approach homes today.
