Spotlight of the Month: Christy Watson

We are catching up our blog with a great big ‘Thank You!’ to November’s Volunteer of the Month,

Christy is married to Brandon who has both private equity and technology backgrounds.  You’ve probably seen him running or biking around town getting ready for one of his IronMan (or other crazy races).  Christy and Brandon have three kids, Casseia (11 years old), Tai (10 years old) and Riley (7 years old).  The Watson Family also has a spirited dog named Kona who is a black lab/border collie mix, who is obsessed with chasing balls at the Davidson Mesa dog park. When Christy can find some free time, she loves martial arts – have a black belt in one style – and am trying out new styles now, as well as some yoga and sleeping when she can – ha!

As a family, they love to go on hikes, ski and take vacations everywhere they can.  This year has Seattle, Alaska and San Diego on the calendar.  They moved here a few years ago from Seattle and knew absolutely no one.  Moving with kids across the country can be really hard.  With her real estate business, Christy Watson Homes, she focuses on families who are relocating because she understands how hard it can be and have found ways to make the entire process easier for families who are moving.  Which is so rewarding, knowing she has helped their move go easier, even more “fun”!  You can find out more about Christy Watson Homes’s partnership with MOD Moms at http://modmomsnorth.org/our-partners/christy-watson-homes-keller-williams-preferred-realty/

Christy has been a MOD Mom member for about 1.5 years and originally heard about it from Kris Henderson who started MOD Movers.  Christy has hosted a moms brunch, done some meal trains, co-hosted the coat drive for A Precious Child with Heidi Howard, hosted a mom’s movie night out, and organized a Style Swap last year and this year as well.  She also started up Welcome Bags again with some fab other MOD Moms, calling on our Partner vendors to provide goodies in the bags and then she delivers each one personally. Christy believes in the power of being a MOD Mom so much, she even provides a complimentary Premium Home Warranty with every home purchase (a $410 value) and have been honored to help several MOD families find new homes in our area.

When Christy first joined, it was just to meet other moms and to be part of Kris’ running club.  But, over time, she realized it is much more than just mom meet-ups and discounts.  It’s about supporting each other (the meal trains and sunshine), getting trusted advice from other moms, and being of help wherever she can.  Because being a Mom is hard and it’s so much easier and fun to be a Mom that has the support of other understanding moms.  Not having any family in the area myself, Christy found it’s really important to have a strong group of ladies that she can trust and talk to and she can also help out if they ever need it.

Some of Christy’s favorite MOD Mom activities are: Trunk or Treat, movie nights, MOD Movers, cooking club and Mompreneurs.

Thank you for all that you do to make this a great community, Christy!
