Jennifer Cochrane

As Co-Founder and CEO of Gifted Travel Network (GTN), I built GTN from the ground up to a thriving host agency with 300 independent contractors in only five years.

By way of background, in addition to running the day-to-day operations of GTN, I am also one of the leadership trio at Global Institute for Travel Entrepreneurs (GIFTE) where I coach business owners through GIFTE’s Travel Business Consulting and other programs in the areas of business management, finance, marketing, team building, operations/implementation, strategic planning and leadership.I have an MBA from Columbia University and an extensive business background. After nearly 20 years with the Federal Reserve, I left my high-level executive position for better quality of life and began my career as an entrepreneur in 2008. My first entrepreneurial business venture was highly successful; when my business partner relocated in 2011, we sold the business at an 800% return on investment. Then began my career in the travel industry. I love travel and have traveled many places, a small subset of which are listed in my profile.

I am passionate about the travel industry and its limitless opportunities. I don't sell travel myself but Gifted Travel Network is comprised of talented travel advisors with world-wide travel expertise spanning all types of travel.
