Simply stated-I love Hamilton County! This county offers a wealth of arts, foods, fitness, fellowship, and so much more. Two of my most personal favorites are the trail systems and coffee shops! I am a huge fan of running, cycling, exploring, and spending time with family and friends. The Monon Trail, Midland Trace Trail and Nickel Plate Trail offer me the opportunity to play, network, and explore between multiple HC communities, all while maintaining health and fitness through running, cycling, and walking. For dirt and crushed gravel trail options, my preferred running terrain, I am fortunate for the trails at Koteewi Park, Ritchey Woods Nature Preserve, MacGregor Park, Cool Creek Park, and Flat Fork Creek Park.

The coffee shops in Hamilton County are plentiful, welcoming, and delicious. I work in business development so remote meetings are a necessity for me. My favorite meeting spots are Rivet in Westfield (you must try the avocado toast), The Well Coffeehouse in Fishers, Noble Tea and Coffee in Noblesville, Java House Coffee Bar in Carmel (there is more than one-find them!), and Dark Side Roasters in beautiful Cicero of course! Also, the Remnant Coffee Shop in Arcadia in northern Hamilton County is amazing! Although I could chat for hours on all of the things Hamilton County has to offer; the people who live, work and play here make it the best. Through growth and expansion, the HC communities continue to work hard at maintaining a “small town” feel where neighbors still check in on each other and folks on the trails say “Good Morning”, “Good Job!” and “Have a great day!” and always with a smile.
