I attribute my success to “Passion”. My passion has enabled me to stay dedicated and committed to a most fulfilling and rewarding career of over 38 years consulting the traveling public. I have had the good fortune of traveling to over 44 countries and truly believe that “Travel is a university without walls.” As Saint Augustine once said “The World is a book and those that do not Travel read only one page.” Travel provides an enlightenment that gives to a much broader perception and ignites positive change. It sometimes can be leaving our comfort zones we have become so accustomed to. I can honestly say “Travel” has left a huge imprint on my life and left me with many cherished memories and it is the very reason I could only wish others the opportunity to experience the same.
My travel credentials I hold with Nationwide Travel College, ACTA/CITC. Wedding Planning with WPIC. I find great satisfaction in using my skills of qualifying my clients and matching them to that perfect destination experience. Whether it’s a destination wedding or a honeymoon, I endeavor to always provide the highest level of service and expertise.
Another passion has been working with the local Travel and Tourism College, where I occasionally speak in class and sometimes for graduations. I find it very rewarding to share and to inspire the upcoming graduates. To try to help them to find their passions so they like me, will never have to work a day! To try and breed in good work ethics and get them onto a platform of success!
I also manage to get a bit of time to write in travel/wedding publications, offering informative and fun tips or showcasing my destination weddings.
My greatest fulfillment comes from living with Intent and Purpose. I am inspired by the words of “Ralph Waldo Emerson…. “The purpose to life is not to be happy it is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate and to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.”
