I have known Ryna for over a dozen years now and she is one of the finest people in the Industry i have ever met and interacted with. Her knowledge of Queensland State as a tourism destination is unmatched even by her peers in Australia! She was the steady rock for TEQ, that we could rely on for any information we needed at any time. She always responded on time, is intelligent, poised, confident, professional, considerate and has the ability to influence people to see things her way. She also had a sense of humor that is really needed in our industry. After all we are selling dreams and we need to do it while having fun. And Ryna did that in style! To me, she was the face of Tourism Queensland and she will be missed by all of us Inbound Tour Operators in Australia. I wish her the very best and no matter where she is, she will be an asset to the organization she represents.

Focused , committed and an absolute team player to the T, I have seldom seen anyone connect across spectrum from frontline to CEO's the way Ryan does. She has been Queensland and Australias ambassador for Indian travel agents and has really excelled in her role of leading this important role from a young age. The confidence ands maturity to lead these conversations and make a difference makes her a very valuable asset in the travel and tourism space. All the best, keep shining!
