My Background
I literally grew up with The Society of International Railway Travelers. Our family-owned company was born in 1983 -- 4 years before I was born. So we grew up together, and I have grown up traveling. A political science major at the College of Charleston, I founded my own company, Bluegrass Voodoo Vintage. But now I work full-time at the Society of IRT as a luxury travel advisor with Virtuoso Certified Travel Advisor training and as VP for Sales & Marketing for our company. I was thrilled to be the only American advisor invited to see the brand-new Grand Suites on the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express on their inaugural run. I welcome you to see my blog post, Track 25, http://blog.irtsociety.com/category/canadian-rail-... to see all about my recent study tour to Canada to review one of our World's Top 25 Trains, The Rocky Mountaineer. If you'd like me to arrange a Canadian luxury rail vacation, I can share with you all my knowledge about the region and the fantastic train. I also recently enjoyed a study tour to Chile - and experienced one of the top VAST products, Explora Lodge. Call to let me tell you about the Towers hike! Or, call to chat about our favorite Peruvian Amazon adventure cruise. I loved it -- let me tell you why!
