Daniel Noll and Audrey Scott are co-founders of Uncornered Market. We (Dan & Audrey) have been described as adventurers, tourism development professionals, world travelers and storytellers. Our passions: personal development, creativity, sustainability, technology, public diplomacy, travel and street food. And yes, we do believe there is a common thread woven between them all.
Our goal at Uncornered Market through our tourism development and marketing advisory, stories, advocacy, training, and speaking is to advance a movement of travelers, businesses and destinations at the intersection of sustainability, travel, adventure, and caring for our planet and its people. We help travel brands and tourism organizations develop sustainable and community-driven tourism products and destinations. Through our award-winning blog, we also connect travelers to meaningful experiences to help them travel the world with curiosity and respect.
About Dan
Dan balances the analytical with the creative and derives pleasure from catalyzing ideas from seemingly unrelated fields. His prior professional experience is concentrated in management consulting, technology, and large-scale project management. He values integrity, freedom, curiosity, and creativity and believes in trying to maintain a sense of stewardship towards those around us.
Dan took his first trip abroad at the ripe old age of 26. He went to India by himself, discovered another planet located on Earth, and fell terribly ill (dengue fever). He eventually recovered and has struggled with various bouts of the travel bug ever since.

About Audrey
Audrey has a natural ability to build rapport in diverse settings and gain trust at all levels of an organization. She is a world traveler and storyteller at heart, driven by curiosity and a desire to learn from and connect with others. This also drives her consulting and advisory, to first observe and fully understand the often messy complexities and contexts before trying to find creative and collaborative solutions. She has over 20 years of professional experience across international organizations, large corporations, SMEs, and community organizations in dozens of countries, which includes travel and working in 100+ countries.
Coming from a family tradition in international work that goes back three generations, her international focus in life is not a surprise to those who know her well. She looks for everyday universal experiences when she travels and aims to make personal connections with people and cultures in varied environments. She has a weakness for dark chocolate and can bake a mean apple crisp.
