What do you attribute your success to?
I attribute my success to a personal travel experience that didn’t go as planned—it inspired me to create something better. That moment led me to launch my own travel business, where I focus on curating meaningful, adventure-filled journeys that reflect each client’s dreams. I’m especially passionate about uncovering unique destinations and turning them into unforgettable experiences. In addition to running my travel company, I also work at a hospital, which has shaped my values of loyalty, integrity, and being genuine. I believe there's no need to pretend to be anyone else—showing up authentically is the foundation of strong, lasting connections with clients and colleagues alike.
What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
The best career advice I’ve ever received came not just in words, but through the support of mentors who believed in me from the start. One of those mentors, LaKeisha Purifoy, has always been in my corner—we began this travel journey together, and her constant encouragement and belief in my abilities have meant the world. She’s a true ray of sunshine, and her light inspires me to reflect that same positivity and confidence back onto others.
What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
My advice to young women entering the travel industry is this: **wake up every morning believing that anything and everything is possible—because it truly is. Don’t place limits on yourself or your dreams. Surround yourself with a supportive, positive circle of people who uplift you, especially on the tough days. That encouragement and belief—both in yourself and from others—will carry you further than you can imagine.
What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?
Biggest opportunity right now seems to be solo travel.
What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?
The values that matter most to me in both my work and personal life are authenticity, empathy, and creating meaningful connections. I believe in truly listening to my clients and designing travel experiences that reflect their unique stories, dreams, and goals. One of my proudest moments was helping a client—who never thought she'd be able to travel—take her dream trip to Cancun. Seeing her cry tears of joy reminded me why I do what I do. Being featured on Devoted Ohio’s Wedding website was an incredible honor, but the real reward is building trust with each client and delivering experiences that go beyond expectations. For me, it’s about making travel not just possible, but unforgettable.
