Group Sales & Concierge Relations
Working in the outdoor tourism industry is amazing! Every day presents the opportunity to introduce visitors to the beauty of Colorado’s rivers & mountains and help create lasting memories.
This winter I’ll be diving into Sage Outdoor Adventures to spearhead Group Sales, Concierge Relations, and Strategic Partnership Development.
As manager of Liquid Descent Rafting, my role requires balancing fast-paced internal operations while keeping the energy high and exciting for all our customers! As a small business that only operates for a few months a year, high-volume sales and efficiency are key to success. Juggling retail, transportation, reservations, compliance, marketing, customer experience and 30 employees offers a dynamic and ever-changing opportunity to utilize problem solving skills.
I love being a part of small business and having the autonomy and self-initiative to dive into whatever project presents itself.
Regardless of the role I pursue, I bring empathy, hard-work, the willingness to learn, and a sense of internal competitiveness that enable me to be a valuable contribution to teams of all objectives.
