I’m Shelbi, a Travel Advisor with FORA and a Registered Dental Hygienist. My journey has been a bit unconventional, but that’s what makes it so exciting! I graduated from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln with a degree in Agricultural Economics and later earned an Associate’s Degree in Dental Hygiene from Central Community College in Hastings, Nebraska. I became a Registered Dental Hygienist in Nebraska, but my passion for travel kept calling me.

I’ve been lucky enough to travel abroad three times during my undergrad years, and those experiences sparked my love for exploring the world. So, I decided to take the leap and channel that passion into travel advising, where I help others plan incredible journeys. Whether I’m curating personalized itineraries or helping patients maintain their smiles, I’m all about making people feel confident, cared for, and inspired.

When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me working out on my Peloton, planning my next adventure, or spending time with my two kids. I truly believe that travel has the power to change you, and I’m here to help you discover that magic, one trip at a time.
