I grew up in the travel business! It all started with me assembling brochures and sealing envelopes. Today, as the Reservations/Transportation Manager, I enjoy working with our staff and helping clients take their “bucket list” vacations.

One of my favourite travel destinations is the Caribbean, where I am keen on learning about various cultures and meeting interesting people. I also have a good time taking in live sports events with my son while on vacation. Egypt and the Valley of the Kings is on my bucket list.

Outside of work, I love exploring closer to home by riding my motorcycle through small towns across Alberta, where I enjoy meeting locals and uncovering hidden gems. At home, life is never dull with our two rescue cats, who bring plenty of personality and amusement to the family.

A quote that continues to inspire me comes from my childhood idol, Wayne Gretzky: “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.” It’s a simple but powerful reminder I carry with me in travel, work, and life.
