Are you connected to the tourism/travel/hospitality industries or travel media in any way? If so, please specify how (kindly include any relevant company names/Web sites!).

I’m a freelance travel writer and content creator with a focus on off-the-beaten-path destinations and sustainable tourism. I collaborate with small boutique hotels and local tour companies to help showcase their unique stories through blog content and social media. Some of my recent work has been featured on smalladventures.co and I also contribute regularly to regional travel guides.

On which destinations & travel topics can you advise members especially well?

I can offer solid insights on rural travel across the American Midwest and mountain West, especially hidden gems in South Dakota, Wyoming, and Montana. I also have experience with sustainable travel practices, slow travel, and connecting with local communities. Whether it's scenic byways, quiet hiking trails, or small-town stays, I'm happy to share what I’ve learned on the road.

What destinations are you most interested in learning about?

I’m especially interested in learning more about the Nordic countries, the Caucasus region, and remote islands like the Azores or Faroe Islands. I love places with strong local culture, dramatic nature, and fewer crowds — anywhere that offers a deeper connection to place and people.
