Despite spending 35 years in South Florida, my family moves every 1-2 years. This experience has given me a lot of knowledge in what questions to ask when selecting a mover and how to prepare for a move. I even used Bellhop to move from Florida to Colorado in 2021. I spend my free time with my family, hiking, exploring breweries and new restaurants in the area.

Harmon has been proud to call the Dallas-Fort Worth area “home” since 2020, and he joined the Bellhop team around the same time. Harmon enjoys hanging out in West Plano, where several family members live. When he’s not rooting for the Dallas Cowboys or Mavericks (naturally), you might catch Harmon chilling out at The Cove Waterpark in Frisco. Besides having a vibrant city culture, the best brisket barbecue around, and lots of action for sports enthusiasts, Harmon emphasized DFW’s burgeoning economy: “there are tons of job opportunities here!”
