WORK WITH ME: BRANDS!

Hi! If you're reading this, you're likely from an organization that wants to partner with Gabby and Packs Light, right?

Well, welcome. Pull up a seat 🛋 ☕️ Let's chat!

I'm Gabby! 👋🏽 It's hard to introduce myself because I do a lot. You might have found me through my TikTok, or maybe from that CNBC Make It article. Either way, I'm happy the universe brought you here.

My About page is a great starter for who I am. But here, I want to talk more about what I do—and what I may be able to do for you!

Gabby's content, in three words: educational, empowering, relatable!

It takes a Gen Z to relate to a Gen Z, ya know? I guess that's why Gabby's younger, majority female audience is so enamored with her. Gabby's range of life experiences, from studying abroad in Dubai for a year on $70,000 worth of study abroad scholarships, traveling solo as a young Black woman, to quitting her engineering job to travel the world as a digital nomad at just 24-years-old, and hacking travel through paid travel opportunities (PTO) all the while…

 


Gabby is their bestie who's done it all, and is now giving them the hacks to make it happen for themselves.

To work with Gabby is to receive content that is trendy and engaging, but still well-written and high quality, easily digestible yet page-turning!

My travel and Gen Z expertise led me to speak to C-suite executives at Fortune 500 companies like Google, Match Group, and PepsiCo, and be featured in publications like Good Morning America, National Geographic, CNNTravel, Travel+Leisure, and even on the TEDx stage.

What it means to work with Packs Light:

The core of my brand that make me unique:

 
  • COMMUNITY

With the Young Travelers Network (YTN) blog series and Young Travelers Network Facebook group,  travelers aged 16 to 30 are build community and share first-person travel experiences with the intent to inspire and empower other young people to travel—more than 28 interviews of these heroes are live now!

But my newsletter of 20,000+ weekly readers is slowly becoming my home-away-from-home as I connect with them one-on-one, right in their inboxes!

  • Inciting Action

Our PTO Dashboard has helped send young people to countries like Italy, Azerbaijan, Egypt, and Russia… completely paid for! 

I mean, I quit my job to travel the world at only 24. We kind of lead by example around here.

  • DATA LOVIN'

Though I am a creative, I have a B.S. in Statistics and have worked as a data quality engineer.

I love metrics. I've conducted my own Gen Z audience surveys and analyzed the results, and been asked to speak on data analytics in the creative world on multiple occasions.
