Since co-founding CulturED Travel in 2019, she has used her worldview to educate fellow PNRC members on modern, long-distance travel etiquette, and various best practices for travel expense reduction. In 2025, Jewel was nominated for the Chamber’s annual Prestigious Business Leader Award, and she has been a devoted participant in our Women’s Leadership programs while also serving on the 2025 Golf Outing Committee.
