From school to college to adulthood, I spent about 16 years doing stints on stage for theatre, one of my great passions. Which means I'm right in my element in front of an audience – handy for all those times I've had to host large awards shows and smaller parties, anchor industry forums, speak at conferences, and shoot video presentations.

 

That along with my innate reporter instincts has seen me updating a roomful of general managers on the state of the travel industry from a consumer perspective to addressing 500 conference attendees on the importance of experience in luxury.
