I lead trips and coordinate the execution of half a million dollars in annual sales for Backroads' itinerary in the Gulf Islands, British Columbia.

I lead complex "active travel" vacations to exceedingly high standards. My average guest-reviewed score is 9.75/10. Along with two other leaders, I have complete autonomy (and responsibility) to take care of 20 guests on every one-week trip. My job is fast-paced and multifaceted: I'm a host, caterer, wine enthusiast, bike mechanic, interpreter, logistical coordinator, cook, great friend, and much more.
