Bio
Tony James
Having met Deborah for the first time when I joined THG Holidays as Head of Product four years ago, I was particularly drawn by the warmth and compassion she has for our industry. Incredibly knowledgeable of the Middle East with a contact list to be envious of. Always delivered everything that I have asked for and proud to call Deborah a friend as well as a business associate. Would highly recommend going forward and congratulations on the new business start up. Wishing you every success.
Justine Mastin
I have known Deborah since 2003 and she is a pleasure to be with and work with. Her knowledge of the travel industry, super connections, understanding of the importance of relationships, while respecting the ROI, is second to none. We met during my time with Ritz-Carlton ME when Debs had joined Gulf Ventures and she was totally instrumental in their success due to her enthusiasm, tenacity and professionalism. I know she will always be a success in whatever she chooses to do.
