I am passionate about inspiring learning, discovery and connection through meaningful travel experiences. I earned my Master’s degree in Tourism Administration in 2007 and since then I have built a diverse career in travel in roles across tours & experiences, destinations and hospitality. I co-founded Taste of Place, a culinary tour company, based in the Washington, DC metro area and was as a walking tour guide of the historic H St. NE neighborhood for 4 years. Most recently I’ve been a marketing & communications professional in hospitality. However, the work that is closest to my values and motivates me to keep learning is leading & directing tours and developing experiences. I love working directly with travelers and operators and using my communication, organization, leadership and above all my passion for this industry to create amazing travel experiences.
