Join Our Team

Sydney Abramowicz

Director of ABA

  1. Where did you grow up? Pennsylvania girl through and through.

  2. What is your favorite food? Spaghetti and meatballs.

  3. What is a hobby of yours? In my spare time, I enjoy strength training, hunting for the perfect leather jacket, pair of denim, or boots, watching or attending anything comedy related, and spamming group chats with a running stream of consciousness. I'm also known to spend an unreasonable amount of time deep-diving into Reddit threads—particularly those involving Bravo Housewives and House Husbands lore.

  4. What is the most rewarding aspect of working with your clients? As someone who loves a good joke, a top-tier moment is when a client tells one—or even better, laughs at mine. But if I had to choose the most rewarding part of the job, it would be when a current family recommends our services to another family. Those referrals mean the world because they tell us we're making a meaningful impact.
