"Being named to the inaugural Travel Industry’s 40 Under 40 is such an honor," Nichols said. "It means a lot to be recognized for the hard work, passion, and love I have for travel. This industry has given me so much, from unforgettable experiences to lifelong connections, and I’m grateful to be part of a community that keeps pushing boundaries and making travel more meaningful. I’m excited to keep growing, learning, and sharing this journey with others."

Not only has she been a great mentor but she also is encouraging and empowering to speak our minds within our team and always welcomes ideas from all team members to help better not only the business but the team. Her passion in the travel industry has most definitely lit a fire for my passion in the travel industry and am thankful to have a boss/mentor like her."
