I’ve spent my entire career leading international tourism organizations; including managing the North American arm of the Kenya Tourist Board, running the hotel-representation firm Travel Marketing Worldwide and co-founding boutique hotel booking engine Globa.li.

I love the island lifestyle and am always up for talking travel to the beach. Thanks for reading and I look forward to connecting!
