Pros

Genevieve has been amazing to work with! This was my first travel assignment that I kind of decided to do on a whim, so I had zero experience or knowledge on how everything worked, but Genevieve has answered any questions that I've had in a timely manner and made everything seamless for me! I will definitely recommend her and work with her on future assignments!
