Cutler Real Estate asked Emily a few questions so you can get to know her better, and here are Emily's replies.

1. What is your professional/educational background?

I graduated from Miami University in 2006 with a Bachelor of Arts in psychology. I have spent the last 15 years of my career in MedTech selling various medical devices and equipment to hospitals in the Ohio Valley area. I have been very successful earning top accolades almost every year.

2. Why did you choose a career in real estate?

I chose Real Estate because I have always been interested in this business. Since we purchased our first house (and before), I have loved to scroll through various Real Estate apps to see what the housing market looks like, what are current style trends, and what areas are most popular. I love to look for houses for my friends and family when they are house hunting. I have realized I have a passion for Real Estate and as I considered a career change, it was obvious this should be my next step.

3. What area do you live in currently and what do you like about where you live?

I currently live in Westerville, OH. I absolutely love living here. The small town feel with fast access to everything you would need is ideal. I live in a neighborhood that I would consider a hidden gem. Minutes from Polaris shopping and eating, but a quiet ravine behind our house. We have quick access to bike paths that can take us all over Columbus metropolitan area, but have a small quaint uptown 1.5 miles away. It is truly idyllic.

4. How do you spend your free time?

I spend most of my free time outside in the summer. I love to hike, bike, run, and swim with my children. On any day, you will find me on my paddle board in the middle of Hoover Reservoir, most likely trying to make sure my kids don't dump me over :). In the Winter, we spend some time outside, but prefer to be snuggled up by the fire. We play games, watch movies or television, and read books.

5. If you could only keep 5 possessions what would they be?

This is a difficult question! I believe the 5 possessions I would keep are:

1. My Bible
2. My wedding ring
3. A pair of sunglasses
4. A coffee cup
5. My running shoes

6. In one word, how do you think your friends/family would describe you?

Exuberant
