There's A Better Way To Earn Direct Bookings: Build a Brand that Books Itself.

Vacation Rental Marketing is my whole thing. Connecting MarTech + storytelling, cleaning scattered systems from search to stay as a consultant & VP of Marketing at Lake.com

I understand the hospitality industry fiercely because I’ve lived it from every angle. Starting as a DMO/Tourism Director, I managed government-side destination strategy, saw what gets ignored, and watched visitor behavior shift in real time. Frustrated by brilliant property owners buried under clunky platforms and vague advice, I jumped to the private side. As Head of Marketing, I helped scale a startup property from six treehouses to 21 units, broke OTA dependency, and built an influencer system that drove 93% direct bookings and revenue sky high in two years—all without depending on PPC.

Here's The Deal.

You Can’t Build a Premium Brand on Borrowed Land.

I’m a direct booking strategist and systems builder obsessed with one thing: making the guest journey feel effortless.

My work started in the trenches: a property with a messy tech stack, scattered visibility, and too much dependence on platforms that can change the rules overnight. So we did what most operators don’t think they’re allowed to do—we took control. We rebuilt the foundation (brand, website, CRM, automation, content), aligned the systems, and turned direct booking into the default.

That’s still what I do today: help independent hospitality brands own their demand, clean up their tech, and create guest-first experiences that convert quietly and consistently.
