What do you do?
I help our guests prepare for their safari and Kilimanjaro trekking adventures. That includes everything from answering questions, providing pre-departure materials, arranging services and accommodations to simply talking on the phone and offering peace of mind to our travelers.

What is your favorite part about your job?
My favorite part of the job is getting to hear not only our guests’ travel stories but also their life stories. I love getting to know them on a personal level.

Where’s next on your travel bucket list?
I’d love to eventually make my way out to Japan!

The best meal I ever had while traveling was at Ellen’s Stardust Diner in NYC! I’m a sucker for classic diner food and musical theater, so this was the perfect combination!

My insider safari tip is: plan to come in a day or two early if you can! This helps to mitigate issues caused by flight delays and give you extra time to relax before your adventure.
