Q/A

Tell us a bit about your career passions

I’ve always been passionate about the hospitality and travel industry, where opportunities for exploration are endless. I’m equally driven by building and leading teams, particularly in dynamic, high-growth environments.

What about the opportunity that made you interested in coming on board to Visiting Media?

It was a great opportunity to combine those passions! The product/market fit was evident; when talking to industry colleagues, it was clear how excited customers of Visiting Media were about the product. In Sales, it’s amazing to work for an organization that has customers who are true product evangelists. The people and culture also stood out to me—each conversation I had with the team made it more clear that this was a group of smart, fun people I wanted to work with. I’m thrilled about the opportunity to build the team and the business. There’s tremendous potential to grow our customer base and revenue.

What are you most interested in doing at the company in your first 60-90 days?

Meeting the rest of the team! I want to fully understand the product and the roadmap, and spend as much time as I can listening to our customers.

What got you excited about our products?

The platform makes our customers’ lives easier and drives more revenue. That’s a powerful combination. Also, while we are mostly known as a platform for hotels, there are many other adjacent hospitality and real estate businesses and use cases.

Please share anything else you’d like our customers to know about this exciting change, and what they could expect.

I’ve spent my career in the seats of our buyers and users: as a Salesperson, Director of Sales and Marketing, and VP of Sales and Marketing. I bring that understanding to our conversations, and it also enables me to be a strong customer advocate internally as we think about the future of the product and customer experience.
