Galveston Local

Natalie has spent over a decade in the tourism industry, but her love for Galveston began long before her career, as she grew up just around the corner. Galveston has a vibe that’s hard to put into words: quirky, fun, and full of hidden gems around every corner. What could be better than promoting a destination you truly love? Natalie is grateful to call the island home as a proud local, or as she likes to say, an IBC (Islander by Choice).
