Keyla

Keyla

Keyla studied at an American school in Peru, when she came to the end of her schooling, the big 'What's the next step?' question came up. She wasn't sure which career to pursue but she told herself that whatever it may be, she should be able to use her English. Organizing and coordinating were the words that resonated in her mind. With some doubt on whether to study business administration or hotels, a friend proposed commercial aviation, but in the end she opted for business administration.

Without realizing it she was beginning to develop her career in the tourism sector, firstly as a promoter and then a sales executive in several agencies. In 1999 and along with the birth of her daughter, Mariafe, she was also welcomed to the Setours family. Back then, we were a team of only 6 people in sales and 2 in operations. She has excelled in the company since then and found herself moving through the areas of sales, operations, negotiations and now reservations in her almost 20 years at the company.
