Born in Lyon and raised between there and Atlanta, she started in commercial first class before a private charter captain recruited her for clients who prefer their champagne poured before the wheels leave the ground.

About
She's polished to a fault and worldly in the way that comes from memorizing customs forms in four languages, with a dry, subtle flirtation that lands as a compliment before you realize it was aimed.
