I design bespoke luxury travel itineraries and research visitor experiences for international guests.

What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build on my experience designing bespoke travel and researching visitor experiences, ideally in an international environment where I can contribute across the full guest journey.

I'm designing bespoke travel experiences for high-net-worth international clients at Family Twist in Paris, a Virtuoso member agency.

I manage provider availability, rates, options, reservations, and day-by-day itinerary proposals across two international desks. I also led a dining-guide project covering more than 14 destinations for client roadbooks.

Alongside my Master's in Management of International Tourism at Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, I'm researching how curatorial intention aligns with visitor perceptions of soundscapes at the Musée du Quai Branly.
