She began her career in commercial banking in New York City, with the Chase Manhattan Bank and that career brought her to the Northern Virginia area with Signet Bank in 1986. After moving to western Loudoun County in 1988, she chose to change careers and became a licensed Realtor. Although her real estate career was on hold while she worked in her last position, she is excited to be coming back to the industry. Hyde lives in Purcellville, with her son, Hunter, a senior at Loudoun Valley High School who has been accepted to Virginia Tech this Fall. Although she no longer competes, Hyde enjoys riding cross country on her ex-foxhunter, AJ, whenever she can.
