A Bit About Me

I’m an active, curious professional driven by a love for travel and continual learning. This blend has shaped my path as an international meeting planner, enabling me to design memorable events, explore new cultures, and evolve both personally and professionally—just as elite planners stress the importance of growth and global perspective.

As a natural extension of this journey, I created MICE Destinations, a digital magazine that spotlights culturally rich venues, heritage sites, and innovative event design tools. It’s a platform inspired by my experiences and dedicated to connecting planners with fresh ideas and global insights.
