ALASKAACTIVE.COM - Key Persons
Having spent several months working and travelling around the US, Donna discovered her passion for travel. She has travelled across Alaska many times. Before having a small break to spend more time with her family she managed a couple of inbound tour operators which has provided her with profound knowledge, experience and lifelong connections both internationally and domestically. She loves the outdoors and is a keen photographer who never misses an opportunity to experience another part of this beautiful state.
She discovered her love for travel when she and her family ventured on trips across North America, where she developed a passion for the country's incredible nature and its rich cultural heritage. After high school, Karen completed an advanced diploma in hotel management and has been in the travel industry for 4 years and counting. She has found Alaska to have the perfect surrounding nature to enjoy all the outdoor activities she loves. Karen spends most of her weekends hiking, cycling and fishing.
The team is lead by Simon who has over 15 years' experience in the travel industry. Simon has lived in Alaska for the past 20 years and has travelled this state extensively. His insight has emerged not only from organising tours, but is also the result of having personally escorted many group tours throughout Alaska and the Yukon Territory. In his free time he will most likely be found outdoors. His passion is backpacking and kayaking - no surprise!
