Growing up, I always wanted to see the world; the many people, places and cultures that exist outside of my island. I would watch the planes in the sky from my window and wonder what it\u2019s like up there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thus, when the opportunity to join Envoy came up, I was ecstatic and thrilled for the many experiences I will have. Whether it’s getting to see the many different people deplane and hear their languages, or the chance to fly on an airplane and see the view from the air. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is your favorite part about being an agent at GND?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I love that I get to meet diverse people, and I get to assist them to ensure they have a smooth and enjoyable traveling experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell us about your tea business, Rich Aroma.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We’ve been around for about two years. We produce three different types of teas: soursop leaf, turmeric and lemongrass. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It all started with my exposure to travel and international shopping experiences I had that helped form the business. I noticed that some teas that were readily available in my backyard were being sold internationally, and were actually in demand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I thought that it was a great opportunity to manufacture, package and sell different herbal teas. I figured that Grenada has a lot of raw materials (herbal plants), tea is non-perishable and it doesn’t weigh much, so it can be easily shipped. <\/p>\n\n\n\n How does having a part-time job at Envoy benefit your pursuit of entrepreneurship?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Having a part-time job at Envoy affords me the opportunity to learn about the cargo business, which plays an important role in my business goals. I also get the chance to have time to focus on my business since the schedule is flexible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Being a part of the Envoy team has numerous opportunities for career growth, and a sense of security that comes with the employee benefits. Additionally, having the advantage of travel privileges opens my eyes to the wider world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As a child, Jerin Charles says she dreamed of seeing the world.
