I’m a tourism industry expert who helps Destination Marketing Organizations prepare their destinations to be more competitive and Attractions bring in more visitors.
Some of the designations and awards I have earned in my career:
-Top tourism industry networker and connector by the TourOperator.com, June 2018
-One of the Top Ten most influential Women in the Group Tour industry from Groups Today magazine, May 2016

As a CTP (Certified Tour Professional), I have worked in the tourism industry for over 20 years.
I have worked at a small family-owned attraction, a regional DMO and most recently at the Corning Museum of Glass, a world class museum in New York.
The truth about me?
I just love tourism.
I love working at jobs where you get to greet people, and I love welcoming people from different parts of the world. It's an industry that combines economics, world politics, marketing, and more, and it puts it through the lens of travel and vacations.
Can I help your destination or attraction bring more visitors through the doors?
I have worked one on one with attractions, and spoken to large groups on tourism topics such as ‘China and WeChat ready’, ‘Tactics for more group tours’ and more.
