Sutton Walston

Meet Kristin (Sutton) Walston, a driven and experienced professional with a diverse background in the travel industry and public accounting. Kristin's journey began when she joined her family's travel company as a summer intern in high school and college.

Over the years, Kristin developed a deep passion for the industry and saw the tremendous potential for growth and innovation. Driven by her thirst for knowledge and professional growth, Kristin decided to broaden her horizons and explore other avenues. Kristin completed her undergraduate degree in accounting from the University of Alabama and her masters degree in accounting from the University of Notre Dame. Intrigued by the world of finance and accounting, she joined PwC, one of the world's leading professional services firms, specializing in public accounting and obtained and maintains her CPA license. Kristin's time at PwC in both Chicago, IL and Birmingham, AL proved to be invaluable as she honed her analytical skills, expanded her financial acumen, and developed a solid understanding of business operations.

Despite her successful career in public accounting, Kristin never lost sight of her original passion for the travel industry. She always yearned to bring her newfound knowledge and skills back to her family's company, knowing that she could make a significant impact on its growth and success.

Now, armed with a wealth of experience and expertise and travel to six continents, Kristin recently returned to the travel industry and joined her family's travel company once again, as a third generation employee. She aims to leverage her financial acumen, strategic thinking, and customer-centric mindset to continually grow the business, embrace new technologies, and introduce innovative strategies.

Kristin's unique blend of industry knowledge, financial expertise, travel, and family background positions her as a valuable asset in the ever-evolving travel industry. Kristin could not be more excited to begin this next chapter in her life, back in the travel industry where her career initially began.
