Join us for this inspiring discussion with Chelsea Glass, a Sac State Alum who believes in the power of travel to break down barriers.

During Global Entrepreneurship Week Sacramento, powered by Western Health Advantage, we are excited to hear from Chelsea Glass, #MadeAtSacState, about her experience living in Latin America and as an an entrepreneur offering travel experiences that include cultural learning and language development. This GEW 2022 event is in partnership with the College of Continuing Education and the Sac State Alumni Association.

About Chelsea Glass: Originally from Sacramento, Chelsea is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Founder at Heart of Travel. She began studying Spanish at the age of 19 while living in Guatemala and working in the tourism industry. Chelsea completed her graduate work at Sacramento State in Spanish and Literature in 2021. She has lived in Latin America for the last ten years and has truly created an international, worldly and authentic life for herself nestled amongst the volcanoes of Central America.

Chelsea is passionate about responsible and sustainable travel practices and believes in the power of travel to improve local economies while breaking down barriers. Through travel and Spanish language education, Chelsea and her team hope to share a more comprehensive insight into Latin America and to change the often negative narrative regarding Latin America and immigration. Heart of Travel is 100% female owned, supports the community, and actively raises funds to donate to various relief causes in Mexico, Cuba, and Guatemala.

This event will be in-person at the Harper Alumni Center. It is a hybrid event with a ticket option to attend virtually, via Zoom.
