    Founder of Greenlight Travel.

    Let’s be honest—planning a trip can be a lot. That’s where I come in.

    I’m Juan, and for over 20 years, travel has been both my passion and my profession. I’ve worked behind the scenes at global travel platforms like Booking.com and in luxury hotels in my hometown of Chicago. Along the way, I’ve learned what it really takes to turn a vacation into a lifelong memory.

    Ready to plan your next adventure?

    But my favorite lessons? They happened outside the office—exploring over 20 countries, from the beaches of Mexico to the markets of Marrakech, the boulevards of Paris to the canals of Amsterdam, and the islands of Thailand.

    Those adventures shaped how I plan travel—with intention, creativity, and just the right amount of fun.
