Born in the 80s
Where I went to school: Seattle area
I moved to Aiken from Seattle in 2008 to work with horses. The small-town friendliness, history, and beauty of the area worked its magic on me--I married a local and now we enjoy welcoming others to Aiken, too! I own and run a small local business, Aiken Vacation Rentals. My husband Jeremy is a social worker. We live in downtown Aiken with our dog and 2 cats.
