Why Greensboro:

I moved to Greensboro for a job opportunity I couldn't pass up at a real estate development company. I'm a native of North Carolina and have lived in various cities across the state. It has been easy to make new friends in Greensboro but also keep in touch with friends because of our close proximity to the eastern and western parts of the state. When I'm not working, I like to travel and spend time outdoors.
