BECKY TATEI was raised at the Eastern Airlines ticket counter in Puerto Rico, no joke. I’ve been traveling my whole life, and I’ve visited Europe, South America, South Pacific, China, and all of the Caribbean Islands. From airline representative to hotel concierge to travel agent and now travel wholesale manager, I’ve been able to plan and create some amazing travel experiences for customers and friends. I still have a few destinations on my bucket list and now that my husband has retired from the U.S. Navy, we’re planning to visit those destinations.

CANDIDA ROSSLike a master accountant, I know how to add up all the pieces of a great vacation to create amazing travel experiences. I’ve always been thrilled with seeing and doing new things, and the opportunity to join one of the travel industry leaders was too great to pass up. Now with GOGO as a BDM for eight months, I’ve enjoyed the challenge of working with and supporting Travel Agents as they map out exciting experiences with their customers. It’s the perfect opportunity for me to use my prior managing skills while exploring the exciting world of travel.

STACEY ANTALI have been with GOGO almost seven years, and my newest challenge is being the BusinessDevelopment Manager for the NYC/Long Island market. I love working closely with my accounts on marketing strategies, so they can lead successful businesses in this tough industry. Growing up I soaked up the sun on the Jersey Shore, and I always hoped to find a career that wouldn’t interfere with my tan. I’ve traveled to the Caribbean, Europe, and even Hong Kong and Macau, and I look forward to adding many new stamps to my passport in the near future.


BDM for: Long Island, NYC, Westchester

LARRY GROVESThough born and raised in the number one tourist area and number two convention town—Orlando, Florida, I’ve lived in Washington, D.C., Pensacola, Clearwater, and Ft. Lauderdale, before my wife and I returned to Orlando to raise our two daughters. We now live in the area of the city where tourist and conventioneers don’t visit – downtown Orlando. My territory is the Southeast covering Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. All but Tennessee have a coastline, and all of the states are part of the Southeastern Conference, which is important to me as I love fishing and college sports.


BDM for: AL, FL, GA, MS, TN

VIVETTE DOUGLASI’ve recently celebrated nine years with GOGO; a BDM since day one. However, I’ve also been a flight attendant and enjoyed routes from Jamaica to European cities, including London, Frankfurt, and Geneva; Canadian cities including Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa; U.S. cities including New York, Los Angeles, and Miami; and Caribbean destinations including St. Lucia, Grand Cayman, and Nassau. I’ve also collaborated with tourist boards, co-hosted FAM trips, and worked with ambassadors and embassies in Washington, D.C. The success of each of my Travel Agents is very motivating and exciting to me.


BDM for: DE, MD, NC, SC, VA

DANIELLE SUQUILEMATravel is a passion of mine whether I’m taking a vacation or helping family/friends plan their trips. In my 11 years in the travel industry, six as a member of the ISM team, I have been fortunate to expe-rience many amazing destinations, including the Caribbean, Las Vegas, Florida, Spain, and Singa-pore, where I represented GOGO Vacations at the 2010 Flight Centre Global Gathering. My heart, however, is in Cancun, Mexico, at Excellence Playa Mujeres, and one of my favorite parts of any journey is returning home and sharing my memories with everyone.

JULIA SWENDAMy travel obsession began at age 14 when I toured Europe playing my violin in an orchestra. In college I was able to experience Semester at Sea and haven’t stopped traveling. Having visited more than 50 countries, I had to get into the travel business. I am originally from Pennsylvania but have lived in Los Angeles and Paris. I worked as a travel agent with Flight Centre for more than three years before joining GOGO Vacations and Worldwide Traveler in July 2012. I am an adventure seeker and have the goal to visit every country in the world.


BDM for: Southern NJ, OH, PA, WV

ALEX KEKOVSKIThough my family is from Macedonia, I have relatives living in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland, and when I was younger, my parents sent me to visit them during the summer! It was through these trips that I developed a passion for travel and an interest in learning about different cultures. Since my youth, I’ve visited five continents and dozens of destinations, including Mexico, Thailand, China, England, the Caribbean islands, and Australia (twice!), which had led to many amazing experiences. My goal is to visit every continent, see different countries, and experience different cultures in my lifetime.


BDM for: Northern NJ, NY

LEO SANTANATravel fuels me! My passion for travel is rooted in sharing my experiences with everyone I meet. This provides others with the realization that their own dream vacation is closer than what they may think. All that’s required is a clear vision of the experience you want and a Travel Agent to make it happen. Among my travels throughout Mexico, the Caribbean, and Europe, I do not have one personal favorite, but each destination has left me with a lasting impression, returning eager to let everyone know what they must go experience for themselves.

TRACEE ADAMSI acquired a passion for travel when I was young and watched airplanes take off at Tampa Airport with my father. My first job in the travel industry was with a ski wholesaler, which sent me to resorts across the western United States, Canada, and Europe. My journey led me to work for small niche wholesal-ers, large online travel agencies, and digital media companies specializing in travel. With my current role as Area Leader for GOGO Vacations, I’ve had the pleasure of traveling to the Caribbean, Asia, and Europe with friends and colleagues, and I cannot wait to see the rest of the world!


Area Leader

MICHELLE BARTLETTI’ve been with Worldwide Traveler and the GOGO family for almost two years and am loving every minute of it. In my new role as BDM for GOGO Vacations, I bring over 20 years of travel industry experience, from a small “mom and pop” shop to the international stage with STA Travel, Air New Zealand, and Tahiti Tourisme North America. My travels have taken me both near and far, with the South Pacific, New Zealand and Australia like a second home to me. When time permits, look for me under a coconut tree in the Cook Islands.


BDM for: CA, ID, MT, SD, WY

KEVIN TOUTAIGrowing up, I would have never imagined traveling the world let alone leaving the state of California. At the age 19, I left the country for the first time. For two years, I lived in poverty-stricken villages in Guanajuato, Mexico, where I learned some of the most valuable lessons in life. With travel, we are taught to adapt and more importantly, try new things that are out of our comfort zone, which makes each experience special. Wherever your next trip may be, rememberto make each experience count.

DAVID MOSTERTI was born in the Valley of a Thousand Hills in South Africa with a thirst to explore the world. I roamed through Israel’s Negev Desert, couch-surfed in the U.K., explored the Netherlands and Belgium, and lived in a tent on the French Riviera. Then, I worked for Hyatt International Hotels in London before hitting the high seas to experience more than 50 countries with various cruise liners. Now I am proud to represent Worldwide Traveler and GOGO Vacations in the Mid-West since their passion to open the world to those who want to see it, is as strong as mine.


BDM for: IA, IL, IN, KS, KY, MI, MN, MO, ND, WI

BRITTANY WILSONI have moved around the U.S. throughout my life, and I guess that’s why I’m so excited by a change of scenery. I traveled abroad twice in college and started my career as a sales rep for a resort in Grand Cayman, which kept me traveling around the U.S. and Caribbean for over four years. When I moved to Denver last summer, I was blessed with an opportunity to become a BDM for GOGO. I’m most interested in the people I meet while traveling and sharing my experiences to encourage others to step outside of their comfort zone.


BDM for: AR, AZ, CO, LA, NE, NM, NV, OK, OR, TX, UT, WA

BLANCHE EISENSTARK“Travel” is my unofficial middle name. Even when I arrive home from a recent trip, I am already dreaming about my next adventure. My claim to fame is that recently I had to get a new passport because I ran out of pages. My travel experiences include the Middle East, Europe, South America, Caribbean and Mexico. The most amazing experience I had was visiting Petra, Jordan. The history of the region and the beauty of the site were amazing! My personal travel goal is to visit each of the Seven Wonders of the World.
