I've been privileged to work in the travel industry since 1982, starting with 12 years in travel PR back in the '80s. I headed up the Cayman Islands Department of Tourism in the UK, was Chair of the Caribbean Tourism Organisation UK Chapter, and then MD of Caribtours before heading to Sri Lanka to volunteer for almost 2 years after the 2004 Tsunami.I am a Co-Founder of 101 Holidays, the UK's leading online resource for holiday ideas and inspiration since 2009. Whilst I have now stepped back from the day to day work, I fully intend to fulfil my new (non-exec) role as Chief Explorer to the max! I love writing and have always enjoyed the challenge of ad hoc consultancy projects, conference moderating and online travel presenting (some of the films I made for travelguru.tv as Caribbean 'guru' are still getting views).I'm a persuasive written and spoken communicator with 42 years of broad experience in the public and private sectors of the travel industry.

In 2009, I completed a major project on behalf of DFID, preparing a five-year sea-borne tourism development plan for the remote Atlantic island of St Helena. I would describe this as one of the most complex, rewarding, fascinating and engaging challenges of my career and I continue to watch progress in this beguiling island nation with great interest, especially with the airport now looking like a reality. More recently, I completed a marketing audit of Montserrat's tourism activity on behalf of DFID and the Government of Montserrat - in spite of significant challenges, it is a beautiful place, which I highly recommend for a laid-back "Caribbean as it was" holiday. I moderated the twice-yearly AITO travel agents' conferences for five years, a job which I particularly relished. I'm also Caribbean guru for www.travelguru.tv - we've covered St Lucia, Barbados, St Kitts and Grenada so far. It's a clever concept - experts in their field presenting an unscripted, personal take on each destination, coupled by an exclusive holiday offer. Show less

Regional Manager, Uk And EuropeCayman Islands Department Of Tourism 1993 - 1999A really exciting time, building in-bound tourism from a low base, greatly helped by introducing direct flights from the UK with Caledonian (with the route shortly after taken over by British Airways and still going strong). I also got to dive - a lot! - and still reckon the Cayman Islands offer the best diving in the world.
