It all started with a backpacking trip through Europe.
I was raised in a small Texas town, without much exposure to travel. Yet I always possessed a deep curiosity about the world around me. Before my senior year in college, I traveled through 9 countries in Europe with a dear friend.
It is no exaggeration to say that trip changed my life.
From that point forward, I knew I wanted to live a life of adventure, purpose, and freedom- and my mission became inspiring & teaching others how to do the same.
For more than 2 decades, I have been a business owner and entrepreneur in the wellness field, teaching people how to live richer, fuller lives through nutrition & fitness, as well as how to start businesses to create more freedom and choices.
I moved to New York City during that time and pursued a dream career as an International Travel Journalist, where I worked with brands like AFAR Media and Travelocity. I was traveling 250-280 days a year globally, and I loved every minute of it.
NYC brought a lot into my life, including meeting my husband & partner in adventure! At that time, I chose to transition from the travel industry and focus on my wellness business, as I became a mother and raised my 2 children.
When I became a mother, I delved deep into my own financial education. I had always been strong in areas like budgeting and saving, but I realized I was never taught about topics like investing and tax strategy, and I lacked confidence and knowledge in those areas. I knew that if I wanted to teach my children things I was never taught, I first had to take the time to learn.
Through this process of self education, I knew that I was called to teach and empower others financially, with education around growing wealth, tax strategy, investing strategies and how to better diversify assets. I got licensed as a financial professional and have been working as a Financial Educator and Wealth Strategist since.
Additionally, I am a Luxury Travel Advisor with FORA, aligned with the esteemed Virtuoso Network. I connect travelers with luxury hotels, cruises, and experiences, and I'm passionate about helping people and families create some of their richest memories and experiences in life through travel.
So, there you have it: WEALTH. TRAVEL. WELLNESS. These are the three pillars of my brand, and the three things I believe comprise a life well-lived.
Thanks so much for being here. I feel honored to help you CREATE YOUR WEALTHY LIFE!
