I retired as an employee of Continental Airlines in 2010.  I entered the tourism industry by way of a joke.  (ask me about it later).

​

In 2013 I started a business called “Chicago Running Tours & More”.  It received “Best of Chicago” award 4 consecutive years from 2015-2019.  It also received “Tour Company of the Year” award from “Travel & Hospitality Awards” in 2018. 

​

I am an “interpreter” (docent) with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation in Chicago.  I conduct tours at the FLW Home & Studio and the Rookery building. 

​

I am a certified guide with the Chicago Tour-Guide Professionals Association.

​

COVID has allowed me the opportunity to create a new business that better aligns me with my tour guide skills and interests.  (No more running tours)

​

My dogs name is; "RoadTrip"

I’m ”In the Business to Make Friends & Have Fun!”
