DMV Realtor Radio with Jayson Stone Jayson Stone

In today’s episode, I am talking with Owner, Agent, & Interior Decorator of At Home DC, Amber Harris. Amber originally started her career as a communications leader in the media industry after graduating from Georgetown University. It’s her lifelong passion for all things “home” paired with her business and communications expertise that fuels Amber’s partnerships with fellow (and often future) residents of the Washington, DC area to help them make their home needs and wants a reality — from moving up to making a first investment in real estate. When she is not working with clients, you'll find Amber spending time in her beloved Petworth neighborhood, perusing furniture and accessory stores along 14th Street, in her kitchen trying new recipes, exploring Rock Creek Park with rescue pup, attending Hoya basketball games and volunteering with the Humane Rescue Alliance and Shepherd's Table, where she serves on the Board.
