I am a native New Yorker, born and raised 'Downstate'. I fell in love with the Hudson Valley during a sightseeing trip almost a decade ago. I resolved to visit more often, which eventually led to making Kingston my permanent home. The area's combination of history, art, and nature made my decision to live here an easy one. In my spare time, I enjoy mountain biking, hiking with my dog, and visiting the countless restaurants and year-round events the area has to offer.
