About Me
With a unique journey from finance to travel entrepreneurship, I've transformed my passion for exploration into a thriving digital media platform. As the founder of ViaTravelers.com, I've helped over 10 million readers discover authentic travel experiences worldwide.
My background in finance, including my role as Vice President at North Sky Capital, has provided me with the analytical foundation to approach travel content creation with data-driven insights. This expertise has been invaluable in growing ViaTravelers from concept to one of the fastest-growing travel platforms.
Currently based in Amsterdam, I've personally explored over 15 countries, 30 US states, and more than 20 national parks across 4 continents. This firsthand experience allows me to share authentic cultural insights and practical travel advice with our global audience.
