Hi, I’m Ilyanna! A global traveler, destination marketer, content creator, and social media professional for travel, tourism, and hospitality businesses.

As someone who spent years living abroad and experiencing the life-changing, magical moments that travel so often facilitates, it’s become my personal and professional mission to share the value of intentional, experiential, and truly beautiful travel + hospitality experiences through my own social media content and that of the aligned brands I work with.

Throughout my social media + content career, I’ve worked with brands such as Tempe Tourism, Tripadvisor’s Cruise Critic, Couchsurfing, Airalo, and International Language Programs.

While I’ve lived in Myanmar, China, Thailand, Mexico, Wyoming, Colorado, and Florida, I’m now currently based in Greater Phoenix, Arizona, not far from my hometown of Tucson.

When I’m not traveling or creating content, I like going to yoga and kickboxing, hanging out with cat daughter, spending intentional time with my family and friends, wine nights, reading (usually non-fiction), scrolling TikTok, or simply being outside in the sun — whether it’s a vibey outdoor patio, rooftop pool, or the beach. The ocean is my ultimate happy place though and it’s my dream to eventually settle down in a coastal/beach town one day (recommendations welcome).
