Before real estate, we had a retail business in Dillsboro, NC called Lighten Up! We saw many stray cats in Dillsboro and decided to trap, neuter and release. We bought a humane trap and in pretty short order trapped a feral female, adult male, junior male and two male kittens. We're fortunate

Real estate agents make their livings by forming relationships with strangers. My real estate career began in 2004 and I know that I've been unbelievably fortunate that most of the strangers I've formed relationships with turned out to be interesting and bonafide clients. Many of those people hav

When we owned our camping and backpacking store, Venture Out, here in Sylva, NC we would hire students from Western Carolina University. We had some great employees (Hi Monica Perry!), kids who matured into the awesome adults we knew they would become. We were lucky by design for the most par
