The Adventurer: A Life of Exploration & Discovery
I am not just a business leader and philanthropist—I am a true adventurer at heart. My life has been shaped by a love for travel, exploration, and experiencing the world in its most thrilling and authentic ways. From childhood road trips in an RV to solo traveling across the globe, I love embracing every opportunity to seek adventure, immersing myself in different cultures, and pushing the limits of experience.
A Lifelong Love for Travel & Exploration
My passion for travel and adventure has continued throughout my life. To date, I have:
- Visited 48 states, including Puerto Rico. Hawaii is next on my list 😊.
- Traveled to over 18 countries.
- Explored landscapes, cultures, food, and adventures on many continents.
Adventure is My Way of Life
Whether scaling mountains, swimming with sea creatures, or diving into new business ventures, I approach every challenge with the same fearless energy.
My entrepreneurial success, global travels, and passion for discovery make me an unstoppable force in business and life. I don’t just dream about adventure—I live, breathe, and share it with the world.
The Ocean Dream: A Parallel Passion
Pursuing the Ocean Dream:
Even at the peak of my business career, the call of the ocean remained ever-present. The same childhood summers on the New Jersey shore that instilled a deep, almost spiritual bond with the sea continued to inspire me. Living in New York City during 9/11 further reignited that passion, prompting me to ask myself if it was time to pursue my ocean dream—perhaps even becoming a marine biologist.
While maintaining her high-powered NYC marketing role, I relocated to Galveston, Texas, and enrolled at Texas A&M in marine biology, where I excelled academically. My volunteer work there with the Texas Marine Mammal Stranding Network inspired me to develop innovative business plans for marine conservation initiatives, including Save the Manatee (Jimmy Buffett) and a hotel concept to generate funds for Costa Rica’s marine mammal rescue—demonstrating my ability to merge business acumen with environmental passion.
