Born in the 80s
Where I went to school: Georgia Tech
Originally from the southeast, I’ve spent the last 12 years traveling to 60+ countries around the world and have lived in 6 different (and amazing) cities across North America - it’s been awesome and I’ve had the privilege of meeting so many unique and amazing people. When I migrated back to my home state of Georgia, it was my dream to be able to design and develop unique and elevated Airbnb experiences and share them with guests from all over the world - really showing them what “southern hospitality” was all about and bringing smiles to their faces. When I’m not taking care of my amazing guests, I love doing things like boating, wakeboarding, hiking, kayaking, SUP’ing, working out, cooking, taking in amazing vistas, entertaining family and friends, reading, and traveling :) The best part about being a host for me is meeting new people and helping ensure they have the best trip possible and get a taste of the “hygge lifestyle”!
