A brief bio:
After graduating from the University of North Carolina in 1987 with a degree in Russian & Eastern European Studies, I studied abroad three times (Spain & Chile) and started a tour operation business specializing in group tours to the Caribbean. While this company was in its infancy I was able to travel the world, visiting six continents and 75+ countries. In 2005, after 18 years at the helm, I sold this company to Tui Travel, a multinational travel conglomerate based in the UK. Afterwards, I served as the director of Tui Student's Acquisition department, overseeing 13 acquisitions in 3 years and helping to build one of the largest student travel companies in the world. Currently, I am the president of Real Property Development, a commercial real estate business specializing in multi-family and triple-net acquisitions.
Humbled by how incredibly blessed my family and I have been, I am devoting more of my time and talents to helping others achieve their goals. Having learned some of the most important lessons of my life while sleeping in grass huts in Nicaragua and building rooms and schools in Costa Rica, Nourish International’s social/entrepreneurial mission speaks clearly to me. My foreign travel, study and business experiences have taught me invaluable lessons on respecting the cultural differences of our global community and provide a unique perspective into what Nourish can and will achieve in the future.
