About
I bring 15 years of experience in the travel industry, with the last 4+ years focused on luxury and bespoke travel. I specialize in transforming complex ideas, whether a multi-layered itinerary or an evolving business concept, into polished, strategic, and highly organized deliverables that move projects forward with clarity and momentum.
Beyond design, I bring a project manager’s mindset. I am skilled at building streamlined workflows, organizing moving parts, and creating systems that make businesses run more efficiently. From managing timelines and coordinating vendors to structuring backend processes and refining client-facing materials, I think several steps ahead and keep everything on track.
I am especially strong in Canva, where I design high-impact client proposals, branded travel documents, and marketing assets that reflect each advisor’s voice and positioning. I do not just make things look beautiful. I make them functional, persuasive, and aligned with the broader strategy.
Alongside Canva, I am experienced in Axus, Travefy, TripSuite, Basecamp, and Google Workspace, ensuring every creative element is supported by precision, organization, and operational efficiency. I work quickly and collaboratively, balancing big-picture thinking with meticulous execution.
