After years of adulting, trying to determine what I wanted to do and decades of various careers, I discovered my true calling is as a Tour Director/Manager. 

I have owned two restaurants, retail business, and Real Estate agent.  But the most enjoyable time I have had in my working career has been touring.  Entertaining and touring started at the age of 19.  I became the youngest female US Coast Guard licensed Captain in the Virgin Islands.  I would take guests on a sailing vessel for a week at a time, sailing around the Islands while teaching them about the Islands and how to sail.

In 2019 I jumped into the Tour business and,  well, the rest is history.  In the first 6 months I was working for multiple companies and completed more than a dozen tours.  Not bad for just entering the industry.     

I work with Adult and Student companies.  The majority of my tours are within the South and Southeast but my knowledge expands to the West.  I’m willing to learn and take guests to other destinations if a Tour Operator asks.  Guests never know when I lead a tour for the first time.  I fill myself with knowledge beforehand.

I have excellent evaluations which average 4.9 out of 5, many come back as straight down the line 5’s.  Just ask, I’ll send you the evals if you want proof!  The main comments: organized, efficient, sense of humor, able to handle problems calmly and fun. 

I truly enjoy touring with both adults and students.  I love to socialize, have fun and laugh with my guests.  You need laughter on tour, you also need lasting memories.  I provide that and more.    

I find I am creative, in my mind, but once on paper, the drawing I pictured in my head becomes more of a stick person.  

My dog is the sweetest dog I have ever owned. But now, because I am hardly home, he sees me as nothing but a foster mom.  He lives with my Mom and I pay the bills.  She has a companion and I have vet bills.  

When I am home, I have a house which needs renovating (and yes, a dog which needs attention) so I spend a lot of time working on my house. I’m always looking for volunteers to assist if you have spare time.  If not willing to volunteer maybe  you can help fill my calendar so I’m not home often.
