LAKE PLACID — Engel and Völkers Lake Placid Real Estate recently announced the newest addition to its team, Amanda Birchenough-Morrell, as a real estate advisor.

Birchenough-Morrell brings over two decades of diverse experience in fundraising, marketing, event planning and project management.

She returned to the region eight years ago and now owns a home in Saranac Lake with her husband Matt and their two dogs, Angus and Max. She enjoys skiing, hiking, camping, boating, crafting, and gardening.
