Fifeteen years in journalism, tv, radio and print,
but "Travel World" is the best job any journalist
can have. Being able to combine a love of travel with
a radio show heard by so many people is a dream come
true, especially with a great boss like the infamous
travel wizard, Mr. Pickford!!!
Some of the other jobs I've held and loved include
working at First Frame Productions in Johannesburg,
South Africa. I went over there 3 years ago to produce
stories in the bush. Can you believe I lived with
a herd of tamed elephants in Zimbabwe?? I also love
working on two educational TV shows for kids. "Popular
Mechanics for Kids" and "YAA ! To the Max"
are the shows and working in a kids show office is
great fun. We used to have a rubber chicken hanging
from the wall!!
History.what can I say here.grew up in New Yawk.still
sorta tawk like one. Vic Phillips calls me "one
tough american broad" but I know he means that
as a compliment!! That's why we love our Vic!!! I'm
real street smart ... can navigate any city anytime
which is why I'm such a good reporter. I ask tons
of questions and actually when I got my first radio
job at age 22, my mother said "finally someone
is going to pay you to ask all your questions!!"
Most Memorable Trip:
Some of my favorite destinations so far have been
mostly all of the warm climates but I particularly
loved the Barbados (great spicy fish), Hong Kong (shopping,
shopping and more shopping), Madrid (very handsome
spanish men!!!), Malaysia (truly paradise on earth!),
NYC (my hometown!!!) and Tokyo (the most efficient
subway on the planet and, of course, the best sushi!!).
Dream Trip:
My wish list for Travel World includes Singapore,
Thailand, Kenya, Tanzania and Ireland but I welcome
listener suggestions!!! My repeat wish list includes:
South Africa but Capetown this time, Malaysia (can't
go enough!!), Hong Kong and Mexico.
Hobbies/Interests:
Spare time..let's see..I love walking through the
streets of any city eyeing at café. Actually,
café and newspapers in a café is a big
time favorite! I see a lot of movies, love trying
exotic food and cool. Restos, my book club once a
month is fun!! And anything to do with travel is my
real passion!
