Thank you for selecting me as Professional Stager of the Year

I wish to express my gratitude to all of you who selected me to be the RESA Professional Stager of the Year- I want to personally thank Shell Brodnax for all her hard work to create such a wonderful organization.  I am so honored to have received this accolade and even more honored to have been amongst such a wonderful group of nominees.  These professionals have worked hard to set the bar for stagers to come and I admire them for their professionalism, ethics and the skills they infuse in their work and bring to our industry.  I believe 2008 will be an important year for our industry and am excited to see how we grow and continue to support home sellers with marketing and preparing their homes for sale.

Thanks everyone. I really appreciate all your kind comments and support. There are times like today when I was meeting with a client and explaining for what seemed like the 100th time this month that "moth balls and potty seat covers are not the trend that buyers are looking for" that I realized how awesome it is that I can do my passion every day and share it with others. I feel truly blessed. KH

Kate, since I met you...years ago, in another lifetime for both of us, and since that last night when we spoke in person, OHHHH HOW FAR WE'VE COME.  This is so well deserved and recognition from your peers is the most rewarding kind.  Follow your heart, follow your dream and look where it takes you.  Well deserved and well earned my dear Kate.  I am sooo happy for you.  T:-)
