Description

Hola Mi Amigos!

Over the past 14 years, I’ve had the privilege of traveling and working around the world, gaining diverse experience across multiple continents. My journey has included everything from Overlanding—an absolutely incredible adventure (if you haven’t looked it up yet, I highly recommend you do!)—to managing lodges in some of the world’s most breathtaking locations.

Throughout my career, I’ve built a wide range of skills. As an expedition leader and driver, I’ve overseen long tours lasting up to seven months, crossing entire continents. Along the way, I’ve also been hands-on with maintenance work, including building, plumbing, carpentry, and electrical repairs. Additionally, I’ve taken on various roles in the day-to-day operations of lodge management, offering a versatile skill set. Although I hold a degree in marketing, I chose to follow my passion for adventure rather than pursuing a traditional career path in that field.

I thrive on rolling up my sleeves and diving into any challenge. Whether it's troubleshooting a mechanical issue in the middle of nowhere or finding creative solutions with just a few tools (think wire, pliers, duct tape, and cable ties), I’m always ready to get my hands dirty.

Those who know me would describe me as easygoing, approachable, and a great listener. I love red wine and candlelight and am always seeking out new experiences and opportunities to learn.

I’m excited about the possibility of working together and look forward to contributing however I can.

More details about your skills

Through my time working all over the world with groups of people, I learned that having an open mind is always important for any situation, having empathy with every person I get in contact with, and always having the willingness to learn from every situation. No two situations are always the same and having the creativeness and problem-solving skills that I acquired from experience definitely helped me out of some tough situations. I have learned to adapt to this ever-changing world and if we have teamwork then no task can ever be too big.

I love working with animals, getting involved with a building project, are very handy with mechanics on vehicles and are generally a Jack of all trades. I enjoy a challenge.
