Caroline is the Director of Content & Editorial at Angi. She has over ten years of experience writing about the home, with published work in Real Simple and Virginia Living Magazine. She lives in a builder-grade home in Southern California with her husband and son, where she is slowly chipping away at upgrading the "landlord specials" throughout her house. Her ideal weekend is dreaming up her future backyard renovation, complete with a fire pit, outdoor shower, and brick oven pizza. When she isn't planning her next big home project, she can be found helping her woodworker husband with their next piece of furniture.

Hometown: San Diego, CA

Passions: Drought-tolerant landscaping, outdoor living, her recently installed solar panels

Pro Tip: Purchase water detectors and place them under sinks and drains to be alerted any time there is a leak
