Beginning at Thomas Cook Travel and then at Don Travel as a vacation
specialist, and adding special interest groups, enabled me to draw on my
vast personal travel experience and parlay that into a 20 plus year
career.
At American Express (10+ years) the exposure to Fortune 500 company
clients (AIG, Oppenheimer, BASF, Morgan Stanley, Lazard Fr res and UBS)
introduced me to the financial business. From this varied experience it
was a natural progression to the "client" side of the business.
