I am passionate about taking A Classic Tour Collection to be a premier international tour operator. Increase its presence in North America as well as overseas. Stemming from a lifelong passion for the world, I am eager to help others realize their dreams of travel through my work as a travel adviser for Asia, Africa, South America, South Pacific, and more. I am continuously inspired by my travels, with my ultimate goal being to have my clients return home with a greater cultural understanding, as well as memories that will last a lifetime. I am passionate about educating clients from my travel experiences. As an amateur astronomer/ star gazer, I organizes and lead Solar Eclipse tours to places worldwide, most recently being to Gabon, Senegal & Ghana, Australia and Papua New Guinea.I also lead many of our “Tours of Distinction” tour series while a select others are led by authors, photo journalists and travel writers.“My passion for travel began as a child and finally evidenced itself in high school & College when as a rising sportsman, I had the opportunity to travel while participating and competing in various school, college, regional and national tournaments and following my father when he traveled on work. These experiences really ignited my love for travel which I am happy to work in on a daily basis as a travel planner and adviser. Some of my favorite travel experiences have been exploring exotic countries in Asia, tracking leopards and lions on safari in Africa, meeting the aboriginals in Australia and listening to their stories, exploring the rural villages and markets of India, eating and sharing tales with locals over fairs and festivals. Having traveled to over 70 countries and some repeated many times, my desire to explore the rest of the world is unending. To Me- Travel is the only thing you buy, that enriches your life.”
