Travelpreneur. Francophile. Island lover. Wife.

Founder and Executive Director of The Passport Party Project. I advocate for passports and international youth travel. Featured in the September 2015 issue of American Airlines' inflight magazine, American Way. The U.S. Department of Consular Affairs gave me an award once. In January 2014, the American Express #PassionProject awarded me with a $2,000 gift card for The Passport Party Project. I am a #traveltastic champion for the underserved. I have an MBA with an emphasis in Global Management. I like to give.

Trip Curator. Peddler. International fashion + gift buyer.

I also curate epic Paris experiences for women and couples via OneBrownGirlinParis.com when I cross the Atlantic every Fall + shop for my little part-time French-themed gift boutique in Uptown Oakland when I travel.

That's my story. Well, part of it anyway.
