I'm a tourism professional with 10+ years of experience in the private sector. Strategic planning and destination management are my focus for consultive work, leveraging my experience working for tour operators and engaging with local tourism companies and DMOS. I am a current graduate student at George Washington, pursuing a Masters's in Tourism Administration with a concentration in sustainable tourism management. I am certified through the Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC). I believe in the power of travel to transform, empower and unite.
