Out of Office was born from a “work hard but play harder” mentality — specifically, a mission to help everyone maximize their time out of office to experience the extraordinary.

Having previously lived a fairly international lifestyle (Singapore, Massachusetts, Hawaii, London and a stint in Bogota), I currently call New York City home. I currently manage partnerships at Fora Travel, where I leverage on the incredible network, training and relationships my day job offers with some of the best hotels and travel operators in the world to make Out of Office a premium travel advisory service.

I also take any chance I can get to be back at, by, or in the sea — as an avid scuba diver and free-diver, I am constantly seeking out the most remote, sublime and untouched places in the world to explore.
