My background takes me from a buyer with a nationally known retailer, to entrepreneur and business owner of a franchise specializing in the cruise industry. This led to actually working on board a cruise ship for almost 2 years while trying to figure out my next move in life and my career. A friend led me into the real estate development field and I enjoyed a 5 year stint during the boom years until the dreadful bust. After trying to figure out how to reinvent myself, a job led me back into the cruise industry, but this time relocating across the Atlantic Ocean to the small EU island country of Malta.
