Southwest Partnerships Manager

Top Management

Yondr creates phone-free spaces for artists, educators, organizations and individuals. As the Partnerships Lead for the Southwest region, I work with our
partners to create phone free spaces, from start to finish. In our hyperconnected
world, we provide a haven to engage with what you're doing and who you're
doing it with. In physical space and real time.


Leading the sales process from start to finish, planning, creating and delivering on the ground implementation, and ongoing customer success for each partner are
main duties and focus as a Partnerships Manager.

As director of operations and sales for FlashpackerConnect, I was responsible for all aspects of business development, including but not limited to partnership
development, trip/adventure curation and development, customer service, sales, and marketing. As a small adventure travel company, part of the challenge is
wearing many hats, and being able to prioritize appropriately to complete tasks in
a timely and efficient way.

Director Of Operations & Sales

began as Adventure Coordinator for the whole of Latin America. The Adventure Coordinator works in a team of three, alongside
the Program Director and Regional Specialist. As a team we plan, sell, and
coordinate every trip that operates monthly from Mexico to Ushuaia.


In addition to travelers booked through Mountain Travel Sobek, I was also
responsible for Latin America trips for National Geographic Adventures, New
York Times Journeys, and Smithsonian Journeys.

With all four companies combined, the AC is responsible for the coordination of about 1,500 travelers a year.

As the North America/Alaska/Galapagos/Asia Regional Expert, responsibilities
include obtaining a monthly/yearly sales quota for MTS, National Geographic
New York Times Journeys and Smithsonian Journeys.

Regional Expert/Operations

Foodie Fleet is a sustainable catering, and food truck company I founded with a
partner. As a brand new company starting from the ground up, my responsibilities
involved everything from writing the business plan, to eventually obtaining funds and starting and running the business itself.
