Paris

I am focusing the next chapter of my career on meaningful and experiential travel—helping people discover destinations through local cultures, human connections, living heritage, traditions, craftsmanship, and the stories and history that shaped each place. My approach to travel was shaped by several years living in India and Papua New Guinea, where I experienced the value of cultural immersion firsthand. I have also completed a book manuscript about my expatriation and deep exploration of Papua New Guinea, now ready for publication. I bring over 20 years of experience in business development, strategic account management, partnerships, and communications, including roles at American Express, TotalEnergies, and Smartbox. I am now looking to bring this experience to the travel industry, whether within an established travel company or through entrepreneurial projects.
