I posted a few days ago about something amazing taking place at Contracts are signed and we are jumping with joy! Here it is! In August 2024, Shari O’Connor joined us as an Independent Contractor. Darlene and Shari have known each other all their lives and work well together. Shari spent many years working for a large local company and rose to the position of Customer Service Department Manager, reporting directly to the Corporate Office Manager. When she decided she’d had enough of the corporate business life, Darlene invited her to join us as an IC, and she took the plunge. Shari had done a lot of traveling before joining Darlene’s Travel Services. These travels included most of the Caribbean Islands, Mexico, and several other countries, along with Las Vegas and Florida. Although Shari was new to the travel industry, much of her previous work experience fit well with what it takes to be a travel advisor and even a wedding planner. Some of Shari’s past work experiences that will propel her forward in her new career:
Developed and managed event timelines and schedules
Oversaw venue selection and arrangements
Resolved issues or last-minute changes that arose
Arranged and managed executive travel plans
