I build profitable travel products and scalable business operations.
What I'm looking for
I've built operations and travel products with founders and growing businesses for over 10 years. At GenTravel LLC, I systematized core workflows, took over operations and product management, and supported strategic expansion.
I brought project margins to 35%, expanded capacity by nine projects annually without adding headcount through workflow automation, and launched new business lines that raised profitability by 43%. I manage product delivery end to end, from itinerary design and supplier negotiations to risk mitigation and on-site coordination for groups of up to 70.
More recently, I built Deepn's launch roadmap, coordinated a distributed cross-functional team, secured its first five client contracts within six months, and established operational infrastructure for end-to-end event delivery.
I'm comfortable as a founder's trusted right hand in dynamic, multi-party environments, bringing autonomy, discretion, practical reporting, and operational discipline to complex work.
