Before Takeoff (About Me)

My name is Jennifer, I was born and raised in The Great Lake State (Michigan) and have been an adventurous, outdoorsy, creative type with an equal appreciation for education, history and sociology since I can remember. Though I am only 25 years old, I have quite a bit of travel experience under my belt. I love to travel and find joy in sharing my travel experiences with others. It makes me happy to see the initial reactions I had when taking others back to a great travel destination, on an adventure or to an interesting attraction.

I also love to write, create awareness and promote something I believe in and think others would enjoy. I found that an education in public relations would help me better share my experiences and ideas. I earned my bachelor’s degree from Central Michigan University in Integrative Public Relations in 2005 and have been working in PR, guerilla marketing, event planning, brand management, media relations and social media with a variety of companies ever since. I am also enrolled at Specs Howard School of Broadcast Arts in their Graphic Design program to help illustrate and add a little spark to ideas myself and others may have. 

Oh the places I have gone…I didn’t realize how many places I have actually been to until I made this list! I will work on offering insight and tips on each place in this blog (in no particular order) and hope it is helpful to my fellow travelers.
