Meet Dean
Your travel partner.
When you plan your first high school band trip for your students yourself, it tends to shift the course of your life. Dean has loved music and travel for as long as he can remember and knew from that first trip that he wanted share the power of performance travel with as many students as possible. After studying music education in college, Dean taught music for over ten years before entering the travel industry in 1986. For the next 30 years, he gave students unique travel and musical opportunities, from performances abroad to bowl games and parade appearances stateside. Though he retired in 2016, Dean is thrilled to be back to the industry that he loves.

My favorite travel memory
After 30 years in the travel industry, it is impossible to select just one favorite travel memory. Travel has been a way of life that has brought me, my students, teachers, friends, and my spouse a life full of extraordinary experiences and stories that could fill a book!
My favorite destination
New York City has been my favorite city since I visited there as a 14-year old seeing my first Broadway shows, the Philharmonic and the Metropolitan Opera all in one week. And it will remain my favorite domestic destination! But life would not be complete without visiting the rest of the world. My other favorite cities include Edinburgh, Venice, Paris, Jerusalem, Istanbul and Athens.
