FROM THE
Conference Chair
One of the most rewarding endeavors I’ve undertaken in my media career is chairing the Travel & Words Conference. Witnessing the connections that spark between travel writers and destination marketers is inspiring. And seeing the end result—a well-written published article by one of the writers in attendance about a destination represented at Travel & Words—is the ultimate reward.
