I've been in the travel business for over 50 years. I started my first job after graduating from college as a Delta Airlines reservationist in downtown Chicago. That was my first introduction to international travel.

After several years with Delta I started working as a travel agent and then moved to Rochester where I worked with several different agencies gaining experience in the industry.

In 1980 my business partner and I opened VIP Travel Service.

I have been fortunate to be given the opportunity to handle travel for many celebrities and politicians. With great pleasure I arranged travel for, former President Gerald Ford and former first ladies Betty Ford, Barbara Bush, Geraldine Carter, as well as several Ambassadors and other celebrities.

In addition to my experience as a Travel Consultant I've served on the Rochester International Airport Authority Board for the past 13 years and have served on the board of the Rochester Travel Professionals for countless years.  

The most exciting part of my chosen profession is that I have had the ability to travel far and wide over the last 40 years.  I bring my experience and expertise back with me to share with my valued clients, ensuring that they enjoy every moment from the planning process until they walk through the door with travel memories to last a life time.
