Meet your host
Where I went to school: Glenelg High School & Virginia Tech ;)
My work: Professional Host !
HELLO There!!! I moved to the Outer Banks from Ellicott City, MD in 2013. I studied Human Nutrition, Foods & Exercise with an emphasis in Exercise and Health Promotion at Virginia Tech and put that knowledge to work on a daily basis as a Pilates Instructor at the only classical Pilates Studio in the OBX, The Presidio of Pilates! In addition to my education, my love for business and entrepreneurial spirit led me to AirBNB! I CoHost multiple spaces in locations throughout the United States and as a Professional Referrer of AirBNB I take great joy in teaching folks how to start their own business hosting by themselves or with assistance. I have taught a course at the local church - The Path To Financial Freedom with AirBNB - I LOVE to TRAVEL - so reach out if you would like me to teach a course in YOUR home town in the US or Internationally!
Things that bring me great joy:
1. My relationships with my K9 Medusa, kitties Oli & BB, close friends & family, clients & guests!
2. Water (referring to all large bodies of water....not the beverage! ;)
3. Beach walks and Podcasts!
4. Meditation
5. Pilates
6. Quotes!!
As an Air Ambassador, I am grateful for every guest, and potential new host, I correspond with! I look forward to hosting YOU, your loved ones, and many more in the months and years to come...truly a labor of love! Should you need assistance in hosting your own property, I would be delighted to help you with that AS WELL!
