About

A travel business shaped by operations.

Soel Travel was built around a simple idea: complicated travel becomes easier when someone owns the coordination.

At the intersection of hospitality, travel and higher education.

Andrew’s experience spans hotel operations, revenue management, university leadership, project coordination, process improvement and travel technology coursework. Those experiences inform a travel-advisory model that pays attention to both the traveler experience and the operational details behind it.

Higher education is a natural focus because university travel often sits with people whose real job is running a program, advising students, teaching, or managing an organization—not becoming the de facto travel department.

The point of view

The details behind the trip should feel invisible to the traveler—and organized to the person responsible for it.

Organized enough for the administrator. Personal enough for the traveler.

Soel Travel is intentionally small and founder-led, with the goal of giving clients a knowledgeable point of contact rather than another anonymous portal.
