Some people can look back on their life and pick out one defining moment that made them who they are, but for most of us, a culmination of experiences shape the people we are today. Our adventures, relationships, and memorable moments influence how we view and interact with the world.

At Essex, our story is made up of people, our residents, our associates and their families and even our investors. Who we are at our core is what defines the story of Essex.

So, what story will you share? We want to hear what makes you, well you! Share with us what drives you, brings you joy, gives you purpose.

For a chance to be featured in an upcoming Essex video or on our website, submit your story to essexnext@essex.com by Wednesday, June 30. You can include photos or video in your submissions.
