ABOUT

I have always been driven by a passion for exploring, whether it’s uncovering a hidden gem right where I live or traveling across the globe. For years, my friends have relied on me as their unofficial guide, texting constantly for recommendations on what to see, where to stay, what to do, and, most importantly, where to eat! This eventually led me to launch Your Scenic Route as a curated space to share these trusted recommendations with a wider audience.

​

Professionally, my background is rooted in Marketing, Graphic Design, and Branding. I have owned my own graphic design and branding business since 2015, hotoffthehess.com, primarily serving clients in dance, music, art, wellness, and fitness. I earned my BBA in Arts & Entertainment Management with a minor in Dance from Pace University in New York City. After eight fantastic years in NYC and a brief stint in Dallas, Texas, I settled down in Boulder, Colorado, with my fiancé.

When I’m not curating travel guides or trying a new restaurant, you can find me embracing the Colorado lifestyle by skiing, hiking, and constantly exploring. I also have a serious travel bug in 2025 alone, I think I logged about 45 flights!
