Colombian by birth, Costa Rican by choice, Karina Barbosa is the heart behind the operations at Wild & Luxe.
With a degree in Industrial Engineering and a specialization in Project Management, Karina spent years working with major international corporations. Yet, her true calling was in creating human-centered experiences aligned with her values of connection, purpose, and cultural respect.
