I am the Founder and CEO of @LittlePassports, a series of award-winning and one-of-a-kind activity kits designed to awaken kids’ curiosity about geography, culture, science and art for kids ages 3-9+.
I studied Spanish and International Studies at the @LauderInstitute and before starting Little Passports in 2009, I had nearly 20 years of experience in general management, strategy, and finance from my previous leadership roles at McKinsey and eBay.
