Positioning

Partnerships and operations first. Digital tools when they help.

I help travel businesses grow their partner networks and keep commercial operations running. At VM Travel I was the CEO’s link to 20+ international partners and ran the company’s GetYourGuide channel. When a manual process starts slowing a team down, I build the tool that fixes it.
