Angelique JohnsChief WandererIndependent, determined and curious, Angelique discovered her passion for travel soon after completing her Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology at Youngstown State University. Shifting her focus to the travel industry, she embarked on a more than 25-year career channeling her passionate spirit into agency operations, account management and global supplier management. Developing bespoke partner strategies and unique marketing initiatives with effective project management allows Angelique to drive growth, deliver measurable results and achieve objectives in every role. Most importantly, she fosters authentic relationships with hoteliers, travel advisors and other industry contacts around the world who will make the Wanderlux Collection thrive. Angelique has a gypsy soul. From the U.S. to France, Greece, Portugal, Maldives, India and beyond, she lives to explore the hidden gems and to walk alongside the local people and cultures that color our world. When not jetting off to a faraway land, Angelique enjoys sipping wine on her deck, reading, or just spending time with her rescue pup, Apollo. Last adventure: Ten wonderful days exploring Lake Garda, Italy and Cyprus. From the best lasagna ever, to way too much vino, to lake afternoons with gelato. Then to Cyprus for a new passport stamp, exploring archaeological sites, learning about the local wine, eating way too much (LPM is fab) and of course, spa time. A fantastic trip for this gypsy! Next adventure: Still working on it! |
