President
CurrentI manage a great team of agents within our 2 locations in Minnesota. We are a very successful storefront travel agency with strong roots in the community. During our 40+ years in business, we have made our clients' dreams come true and sent them all over the world. Through continuing education and cutting-edge technology, we will continue to serve our clients at a high level for many years to come. I am personally honored and fortunate to have been selected by Travel Leaders Network to serve on their Affiliate Advisory Board through 2023, representing over 35,000 hard working agents in our industry. In addition, I am a member of TAMS- the travel industry's leading training and leadership group. We discuss our business in-depth and help each other improve our grasp on what happening in travel and what is coming in the future. Without question, it has improved my business exponentially. Charitable giving: giving back has been very important to our community involvement and we continue to give to many charities throughout the area. I have volunteered on numerous boards, committees and have served as chair of several of these boards. I believe in a positive, transparent message to motivate those around me. I am very proud and humbled to have been chosen by our Chamber of Commerce as the Thief River Falls Volunteer of the Year and am currently Chair of the Thief River Falls Independent School District #564 School Board. I am also a founding Chair of the Thief River Falls Downtown Development Association, which I held for 5 consecutive years and a past Chair of the Thief River Falls Chamber of Commerce.
