College Park, MD is a college town, but it’s more than that.
I am a graduate of the University of Maryland, College Park and know this area well. The campus is one of the most beautiful college campuses in the US with its ivy-covered brick buildings, wide and shady walkways. It’s a welcome place to jog or walk your dog.
I’ve had many clients from the university community, including administrators, faculty members and graduate students.
