Expertise: I can answer questions regarding travel around NM, including hotels, restaurants, sights and information about the New Mexico Pueblos. I live in the Albuquerque area and of course know a lot more about this city and environs, but can also answer questions about Santa Fe, Taos, national parks and culture.

Experience in the area
I have lived in NM for 19 years and have a deep love for our multi-ethnic culture. I have volunteered for the Albuquerque Convention and Vistor's Bureau. I have been involved in the travel industry for 7 years.

Education/Credentials
BA History for University of New Mexico

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: NM had active Pueblo cities, the land had then been occupied by the Spanish conquistadors who came, established a territory, were kicked out by the Pueblos, and returned again...all before the Pilgrims arrived at Plymouth Rock.
