About Me
I am a co-owner and travel content writer for Wanderers Compass Travel Blog. Except for a small handful of guest-writer articles, we do all the writing and site development. Our mission is to inspire wanderlust to all who dream of travel. The goal is to awaken the wanderer in our readers by encouraging them to make the life-changing leap to see the world through authentic and independent travel. We hope to make what seems daunting doable through our storytelling, destination info, photography, off-the-beaten-path finds, travel tips, and resources. With our decades of travel experience, we hope to help others travel to their fullest potential. As a medical professional myself, the blog also addresses travel health and the importance of being prepared for when issues occur. In my previous career, I was a nurse in Oncology Research. I am a published medical author and contributed a chapter to a graduate nursing textbook. I continue to serve as a senior member of a medical research ethics board.
