WORK HISTORY
Founder & CEO @Sri Luxe Escapes Pvt Ltd
AB, CA
I am the Founder, CEO & Head of Marketing of Sri Luxe Escapes — a North America–focused destination management company reimagining how Sri Lanka connects with the world.My work sits at the intersection of tourism strategy, technology infrastructure, and international collaboration.Sri Lanka has long been underrepresented in the North American outbound travel market. I am leading a structured re-entry strategy that combines brand repositioning, government collaboration, and digital transformation to elevate the country as a year-round, high-value experiential destination.We are building more than a tour operator.We are developing a technology-enabled DMC platform integrating AI-assisted itinerary design, real-time pricing architecture, and intelligent product curation — bridging Sri Lanka’s fragmented tourism ecosystem with the expectations of modern Canadian and U.S. travelers.In collaboration with the Sri Lanka Tourism Promotion Bureau, we support high-impact familiarization tours for influential travel professionals and storytellers. Through engagement platforms involving the High Commission of Canada in Sri Lanka, we contribute to strengthening tourism dialogue and bilateral visibility between Sri Lanka and North America.Beyond growth, my focus is on long-term structural impact: • Embedding sustainability and conservation into luxury travel• Digitizing tourism distribution infrastructure• Positioning Sri Lanka as a premium, year-round destination• Aligning private innovation with national tourism prioritiesThis isn’t mass tourism.It’s strategic market-building — powered by technology, partnerships, and purpose.
