Why Helia LOVES Anna

From the first moment Jess met Anna, was wildly impressed with how Anna met things where they were. From growing up internationally to spending years in public health, Anna brought an honesty + vulnerability along with an incredible sense of agency.  Which now means owning an awesome travel agency AND consulting in public health because that’s the world she wanted.

Anna finds joy + ease in

Being outside, laughing with my kids, arranging flowers, and if time allows knitting or disappearing in a good book.
