It wasn't an easy decision to leave our offices after 15 years, but changes in the way we all work in the post-pandemic years helped us decide to explore new space. Getting ready to move has been a big job, but our entire staff pitched in, our boxes are all packed, and each item of furniture is marked with its new location.

The movers come on Monday morning and we will be sharing photos of our terrific new space over the next few weeks. We look forward to seeing you on 35th Street!
