Hi Fairfax,

My name is Drew, and I wanted to take a moment to tell you about what I’ve been working on as I try to make my way in the world.

This past year, I took a leap that honestly scared me. I challenged the comfortable path I’d been on and built something new with trusted partners and friends: a local roofing and home‑exterior company called All Team Exteriors. On paper, it’s a business. But in my heart, it’s something much more personal than that.

I don’t just want to make a living here — I want to contribute something meaningful to a place that’s helped mold me.

Why I started All Team Exteriors

I’ve worked in environments where professionalism, follow‑through, and integrity weren’t optional — they were the baseline. But when it came to home services, especially roofing, I saw how often homeowners were left frustrated, confused, or ignored. Slow responses. Vague communication. Contractors disappearing mid‑project.

And I thought:

Someone young, hungry, and honest should try to fix this.

So… I’m giving it everything I’ve got.

What I’m trying to build

All Team Exteriors isn’t a giant corporation. It’s not some out-of-state outfit with a call center. It’s me — and a small team of people committed to doing things the right way. We spent an extensive amount of time training under a perennial award-winning roofing company in Arizona this winter and learned what great looks like.

We’re bringing modern tools, photo-documented inspections, real-time updates, fast communication, and a “do what we say we’ll do” mentality. Not because it looks good in a brochure, but because that’s how I’d want someone to treat my own family.

So far we are off to an absolutely amazing start. It’s been a great first summer and we’d love to help you as well. You can give us a call anytime at 703-705-7207 for an absolutely free inspection and estimate on your roof, siding, gutters, doors, and windows. I’d love to have a chance to swing by and meet you and take a look at how we can work together to make your home safer and more secure.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and I sincerely hope we can help you and your family soon.

Summer starts here, and it’s packed with something for everyone. Join us at Reston Station for a season of free, family-friendly events designed to keep your calendar full and your nights unforgettable. From fitness and live music to movies under the stars, this is where summer comes to life.

Korean Fried Chicken: Bold, Crispy, and Comforting

Lee Gimbap’s Korean fried chicken is more than just a meal—it’s pure comfort in every bite. The first crunch is deeply satisfying, followed by juicy, tender chicken that feels warm and rewarding.

The flavors are bold yet familiar, with soy garlic bringing a savory richness and sweet & spicy adding a gentle kick. It’s the kind of food that makes you slow down and enjoy the moment.

It also has a way of bringing people together. Shared at the table, it turns an ordinary meal into something lively, comforting, and memorable.

The Signature Gimbap Experience

Gimbap is simple, but deeply comforting. Each roll feels like a complete, balanced bite—soft rice, fresh vegetables, and savory fillings wrapped in seaweed.

There’s a quiet satisfaction in how easy it is to enjoy. It’s light enough for a quick lunch, but fulfilling enough to feel like a complete meal.

More than anything, it feels grounding. It’s the kind of food that fits into your day effortlessly while still leaving you content.

A Sip of Color and Joy

The butterfly pea lemonade brings a sense of surprise and delight to the table. Its deep blue color already feels refreshing before you even take a sip.

Then, as lemon juice is added, the drink slowly transforms into a glowing purple. It’s a small moment of wonder that makes people pause, smile, and reach for their phones.

The taste is just as uplifting—bright, citrusy, and refreshing. It’s not just a drink, but a small moment of joy in the middle of your day.

Perfect for Everyday Moments

Lee Gimbap fits naturally into everyday life, whether it’s a quick lunch, a relaxed family dinner, or an office celebration. It’s dependable in the best way—it simply makes the day easier and better.

A meal here feels comforting without being heavy, satisfying without being complicated. It’s the kind of food you come back to not just because you’re hungry, but because it feels good.

For a limited time, guests can enjoy the special Lee Gimbap & Lee Ramyun Combo for just $9.99, available Monday through Thursday from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. for dine-in customers. It turns a busy day into a moment of relief, where a good meal is both simple and accessible.

Betrayal
Written by Harold Pinter
Directed by Alex Levy
October 8-25, 2026

Emma, Robert and Jerry have history. As her marriage to Robert comes to an end, Emma reconnects with Jerry, her former lover—and her husband’s best friend—as the action unspools backward in time in an inventive retelling by the Nobel Prize-winning playwright. At once utterly domestic and dangerous, uncovering hidden truths and revealing how little we know about those we think we know so much about, it’s an “elegy about time and memory (where) the greatest dramatic weight lies in what’s unspoken”- The New York Times (more…)
