Welcome! My name is Jessalyn Rich and I am thrilled for you to be here!
I fell in love with Lake Country about 10 years ago after meeting my husband, and have been living here ever since. I was easily swept off my feet by the area’s abundance of lakes, trails, rivers and parks; the local support for the community itself and individual needs; the numerous cozy cafes, farmers markets, and unique shops; the infusion of so many businesses (and the community’s commitment to helping those businesses thrive!); and each town’s unique charm and history that sets it apart from the others.
But most of all, I love the people. The people who live here are the ones who make this area thrive as the special place it is. They are the ones who make Lake Country amazing!
This project is important to me because my passion has always been in helping local businesses grow and thrive. In my early career, I was able to help businesses from their very beginning start-up phase, and through their growth stage. I loved helping generate ideas and strategies, and I thrived in developing and laying the foundation of their business. This area is so full of creatives, do-ers, and makers, and I learned so much from each of them.
While my career has transformed over the years and I now am focused on working with locals as a Realtor®, I have always remained dedicated to helping and supporting local businesses. I am so excited that this project will allow me to continue that through a different lens, and even more excited to share, and meet with, the individuals who make this community so wonderful!
A quick bit about me: my husband grew up in Oconomowoc, and I am so glad we decided to plant our family roots here as well! We have two young kiddos (hopefully more to come!), which keeps me on my toes and busy with sports and activities. Here are some of my favorite Lake Country activities: hike the countless trails and parks, café hop to the most cozy spots, date nights with my husband to cool local digs, stroll through the farmers market on Saturday mornings, and walk around Fowler Lake at sunset (or sunrise if the kids allow it!).
