What is your Envoy story?
I started with the Envoy Communications team in May of 2019, so I just hit my five-year anniversary. Prior to that, I was on the American Airlines Communications team for about three years.
With my time here at the Company, I’ve been able to learn so much, not just about aviation, but about the wonderful people within the company. It’s one of my favorite parts, learning from and about others.
What do you believe sets your approach to work apart from others?
Anytime I interview someone, I always like to make them as comfortable as possible. I know being in front of a camera can sometimes be difficult, so I always let them know that we can stop or pause at any time, start completely over if they’d like, and there are no wrong answers when it comes to their personal stories.
I like to let people know that we’re just having a conversation, and I think that makes them feel a bit better and helps with how they tell their story on camera. I always want to make on-camera talent feel at ease as I think it shows if they are, or not, in the final product.
Are there any memorable moments or significant milestones in your career that stand out to you?
Some of the most memorable moments for me at Envoy have been flying on the flight deck on some of our charter flights – not many people get to do that. Getting a pilot’s point of view is incredible.
I’ve also had the privilege of traveling to some awesome places, like the Embraer factory in Brazil, to see first-hand how our aircraft are built (stay tuned for a video on that). Also, I enjoy working daily with a talented group of people who have helped with the videos that we have produced, and getting recognized for our work has also been a memorable moment in my career.
How do you stay motivated and maintain high standards in your work?
I feel like I’m a lifelong learner. I’m always searching for inspiration and trying to learn new things. I like to challenge myself and I feel that my work represents me in a way, so I always try and do my best with the tools I have.
