Bio
Rachel Wasser
Nelle is a fantastic team member and overall asset wherever she works. I have managed her directly and worked as a mentor with her for 5 years. She is a hard worker, fast learner and able to take on just about anything. She is great at looking for ways to improve whatever she's working on and lend a hand where needed, even when outside of her own scope of responsibility. She asks the right questions, is able to problem solve and come to me with recommended solutions. Most of all, I could always count on her to get it all done, and done well. Nelle would make a great addition to any organization.

I watch Nelle grow at G from a US CEO (tour leader) to her last role as Product and Contracting Manager. In every role she excelled. She uses what she’s learned from each role and applies it in her new role. She builds strong connections and is not afraid to take on challenges. Her work ethics are exceptional and you can count on her to get things done. She has excellent destination knowledge and a strong sense of what travelers want on tour. If you need someone who can handle challenges doesn’t need any hand holding and will deliver excellent results look no further. I’d rehire her without hesitation.
