As a 38-year veteran in travel, partnership marketing and luxury lifestyle media, I possess significant expertise in consumer and B2B media, brand positioning, sales development and creative lifestyle partnerships with global leaders in travel/hospitality, yachting, private jet,and the luxury goods sectors. In 2001 I co-founded Elite Traveler pioneering audited magazine distribution on private jets targeting wealthy consumers around the globe.

Prior to starting Elite Traveler I was Executive Associate Publisher of Travel Agent Magazine responsible for worldwide sales and leading the publication to top 10 rankings by Advertising Age by ad pages run. I was also on the "bleeding-edge"​ of one of the most disruptive periods in the travel industry as a pioneer in the online travel arena with Preview Travel (Travelocity) and before that served in senior positions with Delta Air Lines Vacations where I directed National Accounts and developed and led partnership marketing programs.As an entrepreneur, I've also owned, developed and sold several private businesses in the shipping, design and storage sectors including ventures with Cubesmart and other national brands.
