My name is Jessica Richardson and I am a nearly life-long resident of Alexandria City, where I currently live with my husband, our two daughters and our yellow lab. I have a background in journalism and marketing but I have been a full-time Realtor for the past 14 years and I am currently affiliated with McEnearney Associates.I love living in Alexandria and the overall sense of community we have. I try to support as many local businesses as I can and my mission with this site is to help promote entrepreneurship, community and fun in and around Alexandria. Therefore I will be exploring the new businesses, revisiting the old and seeking out those off the beaten path. I will share my discoveries with you here.I’ve created this blog just for fun but real estate is my JOB so if you or anyone you know is looking to buy or sell a home I’d love the opportunity to be of service.This blog is a work in progress and I appreciate your feedback and comments. Don’t ever hesitate to call or email me if you have questions about things to do in the area, real estate advice or anything in general.Jessica (703) 864-3438 jessica@jessicarichardson.com
