Paola started working events in late 1970’s and her first job was a tour leader showing off the sights and sounds of Italy! She so loved sharing her passion for Italy that she started her own DMC. She loves organizing, or preparing the “puzzle” of the program months in advance, to see the end results realized.
She is proud of many events she has organized but remembers the congress with the best of the best Italian banks in Venice from which one of the delegates moved on to become the President of Italy! Maybe she’s not quite up to the level of Michelangelo, but Paola loves to paint and model with clay. If you ever need energizing while visiting Italy, Paola is also a trained Bach Flower Therapist! Now all you have to do is visit Italy and Paola will take care of you and your program.

Margherita jumped into the business in the 90’s planning meetings and conferences. She loves the combination of travel, art, history, culture and people all rolled into a fabulous destination. This allows her to let her creativity flow while keeping it real. She has a passion for languages and is an excellent translator.
Her passion for the arts reminds her of one of her favorite events for a small number of patrons of a famous American symphonic orchestra and how success is sweet like the sound of music. However, should your entertainment not show up one night, you can always count on Margherita as she plays the African Djembe drum.
