I am a Certified Professional Tour Guide of San Antonio.  Our organization requires a rigorous training  program, both written and oral tests, and six hours minimum continuing education annually.  I am certified to conduct tours in the San Antonio area, including Central Texas regions of New Braunfels, Fredericksburg, and local small towns and parks.  I have a Master’s degree in English and taught for several years.  The majority of my professional life was spent in the pharmaceutical industry in sales and management.  I have worked also as a consultant in that industry, developing educational materials for the sales force.  I have lived in San Antonio since 1973 and love my town.  We are a colorful group, and our town is considered one of the four unique cities in the United States.
