About me

I'm a senior executive and entrepreneur in travel, hospitality and media and I've always had a digital focus. Previously, I was the Managing Director of Retail and Partnerships at Brush Creek Ranch; the nation's #1 resort. Prior to that, I was President, Travel Media Group at USA Today and since my time there, I have been consulting for the tourism industry via my company, Mind Mashery. I've spent my career in tourism. In college, I started a company called Zeus Tours & Yacht Cruises, which turned into one of the largest US tour operators to Greece and the Mediterranean. I sold Zeus to FAR&WIDE Travel Corp. I then held a few positions with companies like Wyndham Worldwide and RCI. I was also the CEO of travel startup called Tripology, which I sold to Rand McNally, where I signed on as SVP/GM Digital Strategy & Business Development. As you can tell, I have significant experience with both start-up and established companies and I'm always looking to get in touch with people in the travel, tourism and hospitality industries.
