I founded and continue to operate a relationship driven travel advisory business. The work requires the same disciplines I bring to larger organizations: thoughtful service design, clear processes, dependable partners, financial judgment, and calm recovery when plans change.

I lead client experience, supplier partnerships, service delivery, commercial operations, marketing, retention, and service recovery. Building Alux sharpened my ability to balance growth, reputation, customer trust, and daily execution.
