She loved it so much that she decided to move to the Caribbean and make it her career.

Blake is elated to be joining the Sol team. Her pleasant, “Minnesota Nice” demeanour and charming personality make her a wonderful Stewardess, ready to greet and care for guests. She loves to whip up cocktails, share wild travel stories, and will make you feel right at home!
