The journey to where I am today started in a small editing bay at my local news station where I worked as a Creative Producer after graduating college. It was a fast-paced and fulfilling job but truthfully, I craved a bit of adventure. I saved up for many months and after putting together my dream itinerary (thank you Pinterest), I left to backpack Europe for a few months. I created a new Instagram page to avoid bombarding my friends and family with photos and later added this blog to the mix. I worked with travel brands for many years and then jumped over to the other side, leading brand marketing campaigns as a Brand Partnerships Specialist.
