As the bio on this blog explains, since my youngest child went away to college and since I “retired” from my full-time corporate job last summer the topography of my life has changed; so much so that it is hard to recognize this new life of mine.  Don’t get me wrong….even though I do miss having my children at home and I miss the daily interactions with my team at my job, I am not complaining!  I just am trying to figure out “who” I am in this new place.

After six months of a “life of leisure” I decided it was time to find the next occupation or position to add to my “exhaustive resume” .  So I took stock of my skills, interests and experience and realized that my 11+ years of experience in the vacation rental industry and association with the largest and most highly trafficked vacation rental website on the Internet gave me a unique background and perspective.  Additionally I have personal experience managing vacation rental properties, having done so for the founders of VRBO.com as well as the General Manager of VRBO.com, and my own vacation rental property located in Dillon, CO.

Therefore I decided to start my own marketing & booking service for owners of vacation rental properties! My business is called “VRAssist” and was launched on February 1, 2014.

I am excited about the prospect of finding & securing clients and growing my business into something that will help me be productive and serve others.  Who knows what the future will hold?  I’m excited to see how things unfold!
