Grew up in South Florida, Studied Art History earned degree at Florida State University. Worked as curator/ manager of an art co-op where I rented out art studio space and exhibited art work for local artists. Traveled extensively backpacking thru Europe and cross country of America. I was a Tourist operator/guide for Vacation Express in Atlanta, booking travel tours to Costa Rica, Mexico, Aruba, Jamaica and Belize. Earned a masters degree in teaching art to all ages and taught college level as an art adjunct instructor. I am an artist in my own right through painting and photography and have exhibited at various places. I have been a property manager of my own properties and began a successful business through Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com. Serving over 70 guests most with 5-star ratings on accommodations and as a host for the past three years. I’ve gained experience as a designer creating a space that is inviting and memorable to all my guests. As a history buff, cultural promoter of the Palm Beach area and professor of art, I also provide external experiences through my hospitality business such as Historic Tours of Palm Beach and Pop up Art Classes. My love for culture extends to the desert of Sante Fe, New Mexico, a second home to me as I frequently visit, nearly every summer, to attend and donate to the International Folk Art Market that integrates art and culture of the world that meets the Southwest. As a charity event, all proceeds benefit the artists from countries from all over the world from the sales of all forms of art mediums through this market bazaar. As an investor, entrepreneur, talented artist, and savvy businesswoman, I am expanding my business through my experiences to include all the things I enjoy in life which are art, culture, travel, hospitality and living in paradise.
