Please describe a past program that you feel typifies the business opportunity you represent for our partners:

Many of my programs are client retreat of about 75-100 rooms for 2 nights. These typically are destinations so they will have quality golf, spa, things to do outside the resort, etc. We have done several for about 100 people at the Lodge at Torrey Pines for 2 nights, similar program at Sanctuary at Kiawah, and several similar type programs.

Please share with us an opportunity you are currently working on:

Working on a program that would’ve been ideally in May 2022, but open to other dates. They want it over a weekend (Friday-Sunday) and are open to locations. Will be around 40 people – and it is a client event.

Also looking for a very high-luxury event in Texas (ideally near Dallas). Would be about 30 people and looking for something really special.

In what locales have you found the greatest program successes?

We have done several programs in Arizona and Florida – locations that are easily accessible are a good quality to have since we have people usually coming from all over the country.

Typical duration of meeting or incentive program. (number of nights): 2
Level of luxury you expect for your most important programs: Mid-level Luxury: ($250-$350 per night), Luxury: ($350-$550 per night), Super Luxury/Exclusive ($550+ per night)

If money were no object, I would: Open a bookstore.
Something that would surprise you about me: I did a Semester at Sea.
