As a military veteran, traveling has been more than just a pastime—it's been my passion. Whether I was journeying between bases or immersing myself in diverse cultures, the call to wander has always been strong. With 9 years of experience in the airline industry, traversing countries and serving others, I've cultivated a wealth of knowledge in customer service, operations, and unforgettable experiences.

As a single mother to two amazing boys, my dedication to success is deeply rooted in them. I strive to show them that perseverance and hard work can lead to endless possibilities in life. While my travels have taken me far and wide, it was my time in Japan, particularly on Okinawa Island, that left the most lasting impression. The vibrant culture, rich history, and unparalleled hospitality made it an unforgettable experience.

Joining AwakeWander isn't just about exploring new destinations—it's about connecting with incredible individuals and showcasing my skills to create memorable journeys. I'm excited about the opportunity to share my wanderlust spirit with you and take you on an unforgettable adventure. Let's embark on this journey together!

Food & Wine experience curator

  Fearlessness and boundlessness define my approach to life. As a traveler, I perceive the world through a unique perspective. My journey began in the hospitality industry as a server in New York, where I encountered numerous challenges. However, I firmly believe that fear is a construct of our own making. Driven by this belief, I embarked on a journey of culinary exploration, delving into the intricacies of food and wine pairing. This led me to enroll at the Institute of Culinary Education (ICE) in New York, where I honed my skills and knowledge.

Upon completing the program, I had the privilege of collaborating with renowned chefs in the city, crafting exceptional experiences for our patrons. My career path has been diverse, encompassing roles such as Guest Experience Manager (GEM) at a lifestyle hotel, where I dedicated myself to maintaining impeccable guest experiences.

Food and wine have always been my passion, driving me to understand flavor profiles, explore diverse wine regions, and perfect the art of pairing. Throughout my travels to countries like Mexico, Egypt, Turkey, Canada, Singapore, and Thailand, I have immersed myself in culinary delights, constantly expanding my palate and expertise.

Join me on a captivating journey through the realms of culinary delights and exquisite wines. Let me be your guide as we embark on a gastronomic adventure together.
